    These are a great bag and well worth the $20, so for $8 they are a must-have item I think for anyone wanting a backpack - either for a PC, for travelling, or for school/uni.

    I got one a couple of months back @ normal $20 price and was/am very happy with it.

      The desktop version comes with 3 x free chiropractic visits.

        lol, ya, probably also need a back surgery when the backpack is finally broken.

    Compare to a Targus it's very cheap for a padded computer bag.

  • atlas on 19/01/2009 - 18:52

    Could be quite handy for travelling. Will pay a visit tomorrow!

    I may have missed it somewhere but does it list what size laptop it fits?

  • Legolasi on 20/01/2009 - 09:17

      Dave Hughes looks unimpressed in the photo

    • auMouth on 20/01/2009 - 11:05

      No, they would be a 15" laptop or smaller.

      • WaywardOne on 20/01/2009 - 12:17

        based on what exactly? The measurements aren't anywhere on the website (as oprahfan notes above)

    The bold dude looks like he's stealing the laptop.

    • ShortyX on 20/01/2009 - 13:27

      Bald maybe? :D

      • zhenjie on 20/01/2009 - 13:37

        Noticed my typo but no edit feature for comments, darn.

        Must be pretty bold to steal someone's laptop straight from the bag…

    Bought 2 of them off the shop.

    Quality-wise, don't expect much. It is still a good value for $8. The bag has only 1 padding facing your back and it's just a layer of foam. The outside shell has no extra padding, feels like a cardboard actually.

    It has 2 main compartments, roughly almost the same size. On the smaller compartment, you get a small fishnet pocket with zipper.

    Just want to confirm to those who are wondering, this bag would easily fit 15" MacBook Pro. There is enough space left if you want to use a laptop sleeve.

    I also tried a 17" Toshiba Qosmio. The laptop simply won't fit. Qosmio is actually pretty big for a 17" laptop, so you might have some luck with other 17 inchers, although from the look of it, it has to be really really a slim one.

    I won't bother putting in 17" laptops, actually. They're usually heavy, and with minimal amount of padding on the arm straps, you're gonna hurt yourself eventually. I would, however, recommend this for a general purpose light travel (school/uni/bringing some unfinished office works home). You can put a netbook inside the fishnet pocket and use the rest of the compartments for folder, books, magazines, etc.

    Even at the full price you really couldn't expect much. Don't think I would trust a laptop in one of them.
