2 out of 5 stars Not enough space...:-(   January 8, 2009
I purchased it by looking at the image shown here on Amazon, but when I received this item i was disappointed. There is not enough space for the charger and other stuff like CD and notebook.


5 out of 5 stars Just what I was looking for   January 6, 2009
It is hard to find inexpensive carrying cases for 17" notebooks. All I was looking for was a simple case to get me from point A to point B on an occasional basis. This case fits the bill. It has plenty of room to fit my computer easily with all of the accessories. There is sufficient protection for minor bumps and dings that you might expect. And best of all, I didn't have to spend $75 or more to buy it.


4 out of 5 stars Worth for the price...   January 6, 2009
The product is packed nicely and arrived with no damages. I am quite satisfied with the backpack.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent   January 6, 2009
Very comfortable, and excellent for carrying around your laptop and ~2 books and some folders. Fits Dell D830


3 out of 5 stars Nice computer backpack but not good for air travel   December 29, 2008
If I didn't fly frequently, I would have rated this backpack higher since it's inexpensive, sturdy, light, roomy, well-made, and fairly well organized.
However, it is not the best choice for frequent flyers since the laptop compartment is along the back of the main compartment, which means it is very difficult to get your laptop out for the security screen if you have anything in the main compartment. (And the design and the angle of the top of the main compartment actually make it even more difficult than it should be!)
Since my lapop is small (14"), it still fits in the laptop compartment even when in a sleeve, so I've been able to work around this issue by putting files in the laptop compartment and keeping the laptop in the sleeve in the front of the main compartment until I go through the security screen. However this is not optimal and I am looking for a new bag for traveling since the entire idea of having a computer bag is to keep the computer in the compartment that is designed to protect it! (And it's also rather annoying to have to "repack" the bag after going through security.)

My oher main issue with the bag (and I have this issue with other Targus computer backpacks as well as most computer backpack by other manufacturers) is the fact that "Targus" embroidered on the front of the backpack in large letters in a contrasting color. Since part of the reason for using a computer backpack is that a backpack (in theory) isn't as obviously a computer bag as a roller, the prominent branding negates the "camouflage" since everyone knows Targus doesn't make regular backpacks.
