I am looking for a laptop bag for my new(ish) laptop. Something quite nice, good quality.
What do you recommend?
Have been looking at Delsey.

Staples fixed me up with a really excellent leather lappy carrier (looks V much like a pilot bag, so you can imagine the extra room for recovery diisks, manuals, leads, phone numbers for the Samaritans, etc. etc. Surprisingly good value too.
Pity I never use it....

I've got a Waterfield. Plenty of space, good design and it is possible to customize it a bit.
Another thing is the personal touch when corresponding with the owners.

Delsey, Targus etc are all similar in terms of pockets and weight but ask yourself a practical question. Do you want something to carry in one hand that states I am carrying a laptop or a backpack that leaves both hands free and is easier on the body ?
My advice is go for a backpack.

Spot on! :ok:
I got a very acceptable one from Belkin - their backpack computer bags are less prone to go wrong than some of their networking kit, if this forum is anything to go by ;)

If you are quick Jinks, and you fancy it - play.com are doing a nice Targus bag at around 80% off their normal price.

Pop into W H Smiths & buy a copy of 'Which Laptop Bag' this months has a special offer of a free laptop bag bag.
