so i've been looking around for a proper bagpack for my pb for a while now.
i'm a little vain so i want it to look moderately slick and not like most laptop bag packs do >_< i'd choose for a sleeve, but that's not enough protection.
i found this one and it looks alright and quite solid. seems small too, which is great. anyone has it? or do you have some other suggestions?
thanks!!

I have a sling case for my PB from incase and I absolutely love it. They sell them on the Apple online store.

Try targus, those are usually slick and durrable

I agree i got me a very nice one. Laptop area, book area, music player pouch. I keep my wireless mouse, my Lacie portable, all necessary cables and wires for everything (including my power packs). It is a very nice bag, I basically keep my life in it, lol. It is a very slick looking bag as well.

they're great, but they're also really expensive. i wanted this ipod case: http://www.booqbags.com/Detail.bok?no=369
...
and then i looked at the price.

They can be slightly more expensive but I think they're worth it. You spend good money for a stylish Mac so why hide it in an ugly $30 Targus bag? Spend the money on a high quality, stylish bag to match your Powerbook.

IMO having an expensive bag will attract the kind of attention I wouldn't want with a $2000 machine
