Can anyone recommend a good one? I have a targus but i don't really like it.

I need one that can carry a 17" widescreen lappy and has good organization. I travel internationally for so i the more organization the better. I normally carry the lappy, power supply, mouse, airline kit, ipod, headphones, digital camera (with charger), 2 cell phones, external 2.5" drive, cables. Basically a bunch of **** which is why i need organization more then I need massive pockets designed for text books.

tom bihn is the only name you need for quality computer stashing! They are made in the USA and have a lifetime warranty.

Try looking at Jansport too.

My current backback is a Jansport (out of production though); very durable, lots of space, and it has wheels and a collapsable handle, so you can wheel it around like luggage if you want. (I usually don't).

I like mine quite a bit. :)

I bought a Swiss Gear one, it seemed to be the better of the brands that I saw at the time but mine is a 15.4, the 17" packs are a little harder to find.

If you want to look at a bunch of different ones, here is the eBags list (http://www.ebags.com/backpacks/laptop_backpacks/category_search/index.cfm?N=2003825).

A leather TUMI backpack is the best, in my opinion.

I've used mine everyday for about 10 years and it still looks good.

You aren't allowed to "2nd" yourself.

yeah, i'm checking there, but there search isn't always greatness

(like it doesn't let you specify backpacks only that i've seen)
