Subtle but welcome upgrades,
I bought this Wenger backpack bag over 2 years ago from a local Best Buy, and immediately loved it. The huge problem (for me) with previous backpacks is all of the contents rest near the bottom of the bag (gravity in action). This bag but, offers 3 compartments for storing items such as keys, USB sticks, iPods, even heavy power adaptors in pockets “sewn” to the top. This results in a very balanced bag and quick access to items frequently used.
Although this bag is durable and travels well, over time and worldwide travel, the bag started looking a bit tattered. So I bought a new one on Amazon (through samscause.org) expecting to get the same bag. But, Wenger has made several key additions and upgrades that make this bag even harder to beat.
Now, each compartment is fully lined. The bag now has a stiffer bottom allowing it to sit more upright. They’ve removed the useless waist belt, freeing up space and the annoying buckle in my lower back. The side zippered pockets are now much larger and more useful. The padded computer compartment offers much better protection and is more form-fitting. In summary, I got much more than I’d anticipated.
Finally, I’ve read other reviews that stated 15.4 wide-screen laptops don’t fit. I have an HP/Compaq nc8230 business 15.4 wide-screen laptop, and it fits perfectly (14.1″ x 10.1″ x 1″).
My only negative (not reflected in my rating) is I wish the bag was available in all black. Perhaps then it would appear a bit more “business-like” which is relatively vital in my job. But every laptop backpack I’ve tried (including the $485 Tumi) doesn’t offer near the functionality of this bag. So function wins over appearance in this case.
This is the first review I’ve ever written on Amazon. That’s how impressed I am with this buy and this backpack bag.

|Fits 15.4 widescreens w/ ease,
I read a few reviews which stated that there is no way that this bag will properly fit a 15.4″ widescreen laptop. I just bought the bag and it fits my Dell Inspiron E1505 (which seems like a “full” sized 15.4″ widescreen) easily.
I just wanted to set the record straight for anyone who is looking for a bag but worried that their 15.4″ widescreen won’t fit. Unless you have some gigantic machine that I haven’t crossed paths with, you’ll be pleased with this bag.
PS – I first bought a OGIO Nyquist from eBags and found it to be a POS… unconfortable, HUGE, and my laptop didn’t even fit into its ridiculous side zippered pocket.

|Awesome backpack for school!,
I was looking for the perfect bag to carry my books and laptop at college, and this is it! It’s got a ton of pockets including room for a 15.4″ laptop that straps securely in a padded pocket. Even with the laptop in the bag you can fit books and notebooks with no problem. I also carry around my AC adapter and a car charger with no worries. It’s got a hard shell on the bottom of the bag to protect your computer from hurt if it’s dropped. You couldn’t question for more!
