I've had a lot of computer bags over the years; timbuk2, swiss army, targus, you name it.
This is the first bag that I've used that has this much level of versatility and build quality. I see myself keeping it for a long long time :)
What do I mean by versatility? Let's start by the outside.
It has strategically placed metal loops and hooks to create many different configurations depending on what suites your mood that day (or how much stuff your hauling).
Straps on the back can make it a backpack (they can be hidden in a compartment when not in backpack mode).
Hooks and strap can create a vertical or horizontal messenger bag.
If you hide all the straps you can use it as a vertical or horizontal briefcase.
Another thing is that it has quite a bit of pockets.
The front has a vertical zipper which opens a map compartment. This makes it very easy to access and it's larger than it looks (fits a kindle AND an iPad mini perfectly). The front pocket itself opens wide to reveal several pouches and straps to put in your keys, documents, pens, chargers or whatever you might think of.
The main compartment has an adjustable laptop pouch with padded velcro sides, this way you can adjust it to the thickness of your laptop. So yeah, it will fit your super svelte 15in Macbook with Retina Display or your chunky Dell work laptop just fine ;)
The main compartment also has space for books, laptop chargers, tablets, headphones, whatever. I've stacked it with so much stuff, yet I haven't really been able to fill it all up completely!
If there's anything I can complain about is that the bag itself doesn't hold it's form well when empty. It's a minor con in a long long list of pros :)
Buy this bag, you won't regret it.There was a 45% coupon for the kelty site where I got it. I am glad I didn't pay $125, even though the quality merits it. Very well made pack.
