I want to know what is the most popular bag type and brand.

I like the Belkin Areodeck Backpack but what does everyone else use?

Thanks,

I currently have a targus sport backpack and it is getting replaced with a targus xl backpack because my new lappy won't fit in the old bag.

I have a generic sleeve that I put my notebook into then pop it into either a mountaineering type daypack or a messenger type bag that I have.

I like a sleeve then placed into a backpack. This is more conveniant and better on my back but for looks I like to go with the ol' messanger style bag.

i like my targus notepac case,but i dont think it provides much protection.I have looked at the Dell bag, and that has thick chunky protectors at the side.
It is a little expensive but worth it.I probally would get that one.

I have a padded sleeve that fits my laptop nicely, so I use it along with either a messenger style bag (just a generic brand) or my backpack. I never use a laptop or computer branded bag, because there's already some people who got theirs stolen on the bus (like the iPod jackings of users who has the white earbuds.)

hard shelled backpack, the cloth ones are kinda flimsy... the laptop sleeve is padded but what about all your other stuff?

Sort of a sideways briefcase.

I have two actually, and I shame myself by admitting one is for my fashion.social outings that I bring my laptop too. That one's a messenger type bag that is all black and has a red star printed on the flap. It has places for everything aswell as clothes if it's an overnight trip to someones. However when I'm biking to LANs aswell as when I'm travelling to places that require more than an overnight pack I use my Axio Swift hardpack. I'm am very pleased with it in terms of looks and unctionality. It's very water resistant in little to medium rain and prety good in heavy to torrential rain. I have come off three times and my laptop has had notihng worng with it at all. In my defence on that point two of them were not my fault, stupid cars... anyway.

I'll posts pics of the Red Star Messenger if anyone wants.

Yes! Please do! I'm looking for a replacement for my messenger bag. I'm looking for something that will hold my laptop vertically (makes getting on crowded subways and buses a lot easier)

The STM briefcase looks great but it seems a bit expensive and I'd like more choices.

I use this Targus briefcase style bag for business. http://www.targus.com/us/product_details.asp?sku=TLE400 Seemed like a good deal for $70 USD and has been working well. Holds my e1705 np.

righto will post pics once I get home. Bear in mind though there is no protction for the notebook other than that material of the bag. It isn't really MADE for laptops however has a laptop sleeve. It's from a mail order from Germany somewhere in a magazine so I can't give you a link to a store or anything.
