Need a new laptop bag, cracked the 8204 chassis

I'm an idiot. Was on the train on Saturday and the clip on my hard shell laptop bag came undone so the bottom of the bag hit the stairs dead on.

The right hand corner next to the speaker cracked the chassis right where they split. Luckily my speaker and firewire drive are working fine. I used a sticker to keep the chassis together.

Anyone have any suggestions on some solid laptop bags that look hip too? I'm looking for some hardshell reinforcement too since I'm very tough on my equipment and travel quite a bit.

Thanks.

This one is expensive but can somtimes be found at Target for below half price, it has a seperate padded sleeve inside the bag for the laptop:

Targus Global Executive Bag

Nice bag (under $50 at techforless.com - $129 at Targus).

Fits my 5672 great (designed for 15.4 inch LCD notebooks). The Safeport air cushion system was designed by Port before they were bought by Targus - had a Port bag before, and it traveled all over the world with me - no damage to my notebook in over 4 years (does not fit the wider 15.4 notebooks so I had to find another). There are so many pockets and features, you may find them as you use the bag. A sleeve for DVD/CDs (removable), pull up document carrier (passport/tickets/id/cash), nice retractable/removable LED light), nice glass case, removable power supply/cord/mouse bag, normal pen loops, key holder, business card holders etc, and a nice side zipper which reveals a water bottle carrier. Enough room for some files and a book or two, plus one of the best notebook protection systems out their. I like mine, and I am pretty sure they still have some in stock.
