gamehead200 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Hey all,My Targus backpack recently had some of its stitching come apart near the notebook pocket and, as a result, some of the foam padding has become exposed, thus I've become a little hesitant in using it to carry around my notebook. I've contacted Targus to see if I can get it repaired or replaced (it has a lifetime warranty) but, so far, haven't received a response from them. So, in the event that Targus completely ignores my e-mail and doesn't get back to me, I'd like to know what some of you use to carry around your notebooks, gadgets, etc. so I can go out and buy myself a new bag (preferably a backpack or messenger bag).

IcemanND Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I've got a backpack, this one http://www.wengerna.com/synergy-ga-7305-14 as a matter of fact. Like it much better than the previous two backpacks/messenger bags I've had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puntoMX Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I like the Logitech KINETIK 15.4 Backpack, but it's a bit expensive, but so is Targus. Note that this is made out of Ballistic nylon... ahum, Ballistic, anything to sell your stuff . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PC_LOAD_LETTER Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 mine is technically a backpack and can be carried as such but unless its empty it feels like a file cabinet with shoulderstraps.http://www.amazon.com/Dell-T9466-Backpack-...n/dp/B000MVBCH2I keep meaning to get another one but its not really a priority because this one just sits in the back of my truck and holds my laptop and misc other stuff. i rarely remove the bags because it easier to remove what i need, use it and leave the bag behind.

IcemanND Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 I've been known to carry two laptops in mine, 15" and 17" dells. And it still has room for more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamtheky Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 (edited) http://www.overstock.com/search?keywords=w...on=Lowest+Pricemy wifes is a marlet I think. Its quite sturdy.I quite lied, its a maxxum. you can fit two inside easy, and that front part would still expand enough to hold a small animal.http://www.newegg.com/Product/ShowImage.as...el%20GA-7303-06 Edited May 16, 2009 by iamtheky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcemanND Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 My wife has that one and doesn't like the open pocket, but other than that it's a good one too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposedly a very good bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeFiend Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 It very much depends what you expect out of a "laptop" bag. I've been known to carry my old laptop in one of these backpacks more than it's "real" backpack... I like the "kill two birds with one stone" approach, but it's not exactly lightweight, nor very small. Great for travel though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puntoMX Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 That looks pretty good. Can it hold a lot of my techy stuff though? It can hold a few note-/net-books/laptops, and for your other high-tech stuff look at these: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamehead200 Posted June 14, 2009 Author Share Posted June 14, 2009 Hey guys,I went down to Amherst, NY yesterday and picked up a Swiss Gear/Wenger Synergy backpack (it's no longer available in Canada)! Lovin' it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigeratiPrime Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Just adding what I use: the HP Sleeve for the HP Mini; it fits perfectly in a carry-on case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
