Advice On Notebook Backpacks?

Posted by timothy on from the stick-it-on-you dept.

UnknowingFool writes "I'm about to go on a whirlwind trip with my laptop. Currently I'm using a generic laptop bag, but it's not really made for trips like this. I want to see if I can get a good notebook backpack and wanted to know what experiences traveling geeks here have had with notebook backpacks. My criteria: 1) Around $50 2) Functional enough to be used after my trip as a generic backpack 3) Tough enough to survive hauling through airport, yet comfortable enough to endure wearing for hours 4) Enough pockets for my chargers, cables , etc." I've been impressed with some bags from Targus; any good suggestions out there?

    That is totally the wrong way to think about the issue. Not buying Chinese does quite literally nothing -- the Chinese could care less. But as China's economy improves and its people become more educated, they will demand a better government. As long as they're backwards the government will be able to continue to do the crap it does. What we want to do is get China's economy doing as well as possible for a long time. Buy Chinese and get the country on the right path.

    The government is not the central problem. The Chinese people is the problem. They voluntarily choose to abort female fetuses.

    Bastards.
