    I'm looking to buy a carry case for my 17" Dell Laptop. The ones i am considering so far are the Dell Energy BackPack, the Dell Adventure Backpack and Messenger, the Belkin BackPack and the Swiss Gear.

    Have you tried any of those and can offer opinions? Do you have anything else to suggest?

    Which dell 17 laptop is it?

    Just for the dimensions as some '17 inch notebook' bags are not wide enough to accommodate the thickness of certain laptops Herschel Supply Co. Little America Backpack - Urban Outfitters Herschel Litter America backpack, its good, and best of all it doesn't look like generic laptop bags too.

    17 inch is a bit wide and could be a bit heavy for a messenger style bag, so think of where you plan on walking/etc. see if you will be in any discomfort, I prefer the backpack style, just so its easier to handle.

    The Mission Workshop Rambler or Vandal might fit the brief.

    Backpacks / The Rambler Roll Top Bag || Mission Workshop

    Backpacks / Vandal Expandable Roll Top Bag || Mission Workshop

    The latter product photo doesn't quite do justice to how huge the Vandal is. Might like to size up the Rambler before you plump for XXL.

    Might also help to look at this thread of mine - before it went silly at the latter stages (thanks radji :p) :
