    Ok. I'm frustrated... :mad:

    I was told Booqbags.com is the way to go for quality/stylish notebook bags.
    So far... here are my problems...

    I initially ordered the FoleeMessenger17. I was told that the dimensions of the laptop compartment fit the dimensions of the 9750 perfectly, and it would have fit the 9750 perfectly if it weren't for another problem. But before I explain further, consider my location--Portland, Oregon (rains frequently... if it's not raining... it's still wet). When the bag arrived I was surprised to see that the bag has no seal... merely an outer flap and an inner flap... neither of which extends to the edges of the bag, thus leaving the edges of any notebook placed within exposed to the elements (specifically rain).
    I could have sworn the product description on the Booq website included something about this bag being weatherproof. Ironically, I must have purchased the last FoleeMessenger17 they ever planned to sell, meaning that any info regarding that specific product had been removed from the website. When I emailed the helpdesk they make me feel like an idiot for ever thinking this bag was weatherproof.

    However, they did tell me that their new & upgraded line of Folee bags were indeed weatherproof. Excellent!! So... without hesitation... I send the Messenger17 back for refund, and order the new & upgraded Folee XL to host my soon to arrive 9750.
    But wait!! One thing they failed to mention to me when recommending this new & upgraded line of Folee bags is that they decided to slightly reduce the dimensions of the laptop compartment. So... now I have a second Booqbag on its way... and it, too, may not work. The bag should fit the width and height of the 9750 perfectly, but the depth is a quarter of an inch too shallow. HOPEFULLY... this won't be a problem and the 9750 will fit nice and snug in the bag.

    So... all this to ask...

    Has anybody tried fitting the 9750 (or like model) into a new & upgraded Booq Folee XL bag??
