Shoulder Bags for Your Laptop and Other Junk
Dethroner points to a review of a half-dozen bags by Slate’s Seth Stevenson:
The ideal bag will fulfill three roles: 1) You can wear it to work every day, transporting all those books and papers; 2) It must be designed to hold and protect a laptop computer; 3) It works as an airplane carry-on for business trips, keeping your work easily accessible on the plane and your boarding pass and passport easily accessible in the security line.
His favourite is the Zero Halliburton (more or less unrelated to that other Haillubrton) 4″ Deluxe Briefcase. It may be practical, but it doesn’t look very cool if you ask me. I’m with Dethroner, who’s looking for the perfect smallish brown leather bag to fit his 12″ laptop.
I’ve been using a Timbuk2 bag which I got free a while back. It’s all right, but I’d prefer something that’s a little smaller and looks a little fancier.
