On the plus side, this model is lightweight and fits my small-to-medium frame better than my old one did. (The straps on my old one seemed designed for a beefier person than me; they were set so wide that they tended to fall off my shoulders unless I cinched them up tightly.) And like my old one, this case has the internal air cushions that cradle the laptop and give excellent impact protection. My old case safely transported by venerable Dell across continents for many years; I hope this model endures so well.
On the down side, I wish this case had more interior pockets. While it has plenty of raw space for things like chargers, spare batteries, calculators, and office items, there are few ways to organize stuff effectively. I wound up buying some vinyl zipper bags to segregate items within the accessory pocket.
All in all, a nice case ... and the zip-through feature works great. On a recent trip through Atlanta and Miami International, TSA seemed knowledgeable about the zip-through feature and didn't balk at all, which saved me a lot of time and aggravation going through security.I travel Monday through Thursday every week, and going through security and protecting my back are both concerns. This backpack has been perfect for keeping me comfortable, organized, and whizzing through security, since I just unzip the middle and send it on through. The only annoying thing is that just because I'm ready to go through doesn't mean the people struggling in front of me in line are!
Buy Targus Checkpoint-Friendly Corporate Traveler Backpack for 15.4 Inch Laptops CUCT02B (Black) Now
This is the 2nd Targus backpack I have bought for my husband. I did a lot of research on various brands. He loves this one and it's reasonably priced. The style is simple but very functional. Very good quality and great for a lap top. I'd reccomend this to anyone in the middle age group as the style is subtle but yet handsome.Had backpack for month; several domestic and one major international trip. Zip-thru work well in US checkpoints but not at international airports (London, Amsterdam, Brussels and Munich; must pull laptop). Not as many compartments as other backpacks, but looks more professional when attending business meetings (all black, minimal zippers). Getting files in and out is a little more difficult than typical laptop briefcase. Also note that when packed will not fit under some International coach seats (due to entertainment systems controls) or regional jets seas. Fits easily into the overhead. Easy to carry on your back and also on rollaway suitcase.Overall, very good product; would recommend to others who travel or like a backpack vs. briefcase style.The bag is very similar to what I need but I really needed it to have the same red Targus emblem on the top. It shows it in the picture but it is not on the bag. The one I recieved is black and oblong.
