Got a great rucksack to carry my 12" powerbook around.

[QUOTE="lzasitko, post: 33872"] [b]bags[/b] Lowepro is a very good make. I have used their camera bags for years and never a problem with any of them and even the oldest that I have (10+ years) still looks good. It should stand up for a long time. When I bought my PowerBook they gave me a Marware Sportfolio II. Not a bad case but no room for anything other then the computer and possibly some flat paper. There is a zippered back that you can put other stuff in but it looks lumpy :D Made out of neoprene and has plastic inserts front and rear so protection is good for some parts but the neoprene used is pretty thin, but hey it looks good :) [url]http://www.marware.com/SportFolio_II.html[/url] Mine is blue and black. I bought a Booq bag off spymac for a good price ($20US). It has a exterior made of fabric much like the Lowpro and has 1/2" of higher density foam all around the computer so should provide pretty good protection. Again, not a lot of extra storage but the zippered pouch on the front flap is large enough to hold a power supply and maybe a small mouse, another zippered pouch on the back for papers etc. In all a pretty good bag. [url]http://www.booqbags.com/Detail.bok?no=18[/url] The one that I have is black on black. Is the bag that you got padded? Web site does say it is but how padding?
