Laptops can really be put in any ordinary backpack or "satchel". Don't give in to this laptop bag hype.

 

[lowtech1]

Get a common sachel and line it with a thin layer of cushion/cardboard.

anyone got any other suggestions on laptop bags (not backpacks)? There must be more people that use laptops here! 🙂

I travelled through 6 countries in Europe in a 4 month span with THIS BAG

Not even a scratch on my laptop and quite comfortable...

Oy! that thing is ugly and it's not on clearence 😉 All I need is something light, professional looking (black), can stand some weather e.g. snow/rain, and will fit a Dell 600M (12.4" x 10.1" x 1.6") 😀

I own this Kensington saddle bag and have had it for almost 4 years now. The bag is beautiful looking, is made with high quality suede, and fits a notebook fine in one built in compartment and notebooks, binders, and books in the others.

A big advantage to it is that while it has built in protection and chambers for laptop type stuff, it doesn't really look like a laptop bag, so thieves stay away. I couldn;t be happier with it, and after 4 years of using it daily it still looks brand new.

I have this one from Targus......full leather, and what sold me was the compactness and weight (2.50 lbs). However, in your friend's case, there is a
non-leather one; it's even lighter at 2 lbs.

Ed, I just got mine from the Targus store. I'm sure that there are other retailers out there....Compusa carries Targus, but they didn't carry the Elite brand last time I checked.
