Pros:
Good looking in all surroundings.
Protects my computer very well.
Well made and durable ..great zippers.
Very roomy but not bulky. …Room for several good sized books, in addition to folders, DVD/CDs and all the laptop “paraphenalia” (adaptor, cords, mouse, etc.)
Even has a little netting/pocket that folds out large enough to carry a one liter bottle of (Dasani) water!
Easily works as a carry-on for travel.
Cons:
Not the lightest case I’ve picked up.
No “feet”. Sits on ground and can get wet/stain when set on any surface that is even slightly wet or muddy.
Handle, while it is surprisingly comfortable, it is a velcro thingie holding two handles together. Velcro tends to show “age” by picking up hair, hay and stuff, and it tends to hold less.
Phone pocket looks a little “cheesy” with the yellow phone symbol on it. (But.. Hey! it’s removable!)
My job requires me to go from semi-formal (college classrooms) to casual surroundings (a barn at a zoo), and my “office” is where-ever I can set up my laptop. I needed something that would look good, wear well and carry a lot of stuff.
I didn’t need to carry a backpack full of stuff, nor did I want to look that informal. I think carrying a backpack looks silly if you’re wearing a suit. I didn’t want the hassle or expense of leather. I’m not an executive, I sure don’t want to look like one.
I do have stuff to carry though, more than just the laptop. Most cases were either too small, or too big and bulky.
This is the ideal case for me. Carries my papers, a couple of books, my water, my phone (occasionally) …and best of all, it takes very good care of my laptop.
For the occasional air traveler it works very well. It is easy to get the computer out for security checks and it has a strap that lets it attach to the handle of my rolling luggage. I don’t have the bulk of a backpack to sling around, but it does have a pretty comfortable shoulder strap for when you have to go from one end of DFW to the other.
I highly recommend it.

After much research…I got this bag.
Pros:
Reasonably light (3 pounds empty I think).
Reasonably sized (not as slim as my old bag…which had no padding)
Has a removable Accessory bag for my mouse and power supply (pretty spacious!). This was THE feature I wanted.
Lots of pockets/places to store things, lots of room for documents, pens, accessories.
Suprisingly easy to carry, either by handle or strap…Oddly more so than my unpadded older case. I guess it might be the padded handle and padded sides. It’s comfortable to carry around.
Cons:
No dedicated “slots” to hold my 802.11g card, I stick it in one of the secured pockets. No big deal especially since My new laptop will have built in wireless.
No space to hold a large (I mean large) book, normal books should fit easily (a bunch of them actually).
I don’t use or carry CD Disks with me, so that feature is pretty useless..but I guess nice to have.

I needed a durable backpack for my notebook on my deployment in Iraq. I’ve been using it for over five months now. It has handle sandstorm and the harsh climate. I even modified to carry many of my military items including my rifle (hanging on the front d-rings). Thats an estimated weight of 50 lbs. and sometimes more. Not only I suggest this backpack but the whole entire line of Targus notebook bags since many of my co-workers actually have the same brand.

This bag is just great. I got it for my Inspiron 9300. I was very limited on bag choices because of the 17″ widescreen. When I found this bag I just loved it. Sporty design, especially since most of the bags look too business oriented.
Everything fits perfectly in the bag. Its made very well and features a lot of different places to store your accessories. I can put just about anything I need in there. Including wireless mouse, power adapter, cds, cell phone, water, some games, and whatever else i can think of.
I would highly suggest this product. It comfortable and easy to put all your computer supplies in with a great look. Must buy for 17″ screens!

I have been using this bag for a month now. I really like the padding inside the bag that protects the notebook. It also has enough space for me to carry a couple of text books (can take in more if required) and sall of my required handouts, so I dont have to carry another bag for my books. All in all agreat product
