I need a relatively cheap, big laptop backpack for my 17 inch HP zd8000. I have narrowed it down to two backpacks: Targus XL or Samsonite Sport backpack. Both are around $50 and seem to have favorable reviews. I like the Samsonite Sport because it looks good and it's not too cumbersome. I like the Targus XL because it's massive and I could carry my laptop and a change of clothes for a few days if I went on a short trip out of state. I'm not in school right now. I'll probably be attending grad school in a couple of years but that's a long ways off. I basically want it to take my laptop to friends' houses and on trips when I travel (~4 times a year). I would buy the Targus XL in a heartbeat but I can't tell what it really looks like from the pictures I've seen. Does anyone have pictures of it they can post? I don't want a bag that's so big that I'm hunched over looking like Quasimodo in the airport
I know my post sounds contradictory because I say I like the Samsonite b/c it's not too big and then I say I like the Targus because it's big. I want it to be big but not gargantuan if that makes any sense. Big enough to carry the lappy, power adapter, and clothes (if possible).
