    I know there's a ton, trying to find suggestions for my specific laptop (sorry). I can post links to any of the choices (their manufacturer links, or Amazon unless that's not allowed).

    Looking for a backpack for law school:
    -Must fit laptop (Asus N53SV-XV1, 15.6" screen. Amazon lists dimensions as: Product Dimensions: 15.6 x 10.6 x 1.6 inches, Asus lists it as 15.4 x 10.5 x 1.6 inches).

    - Must also fit the charger somewhere
    - Space for a few law school books and maybe a small notebook, pens, folders, etc.

    That's about it. Not picky about fitting the neoprene sleeve too, can use that outside.

    Choices so far:
    Targus RG0322
    Targus CityGear
    Targus TXL617

    Any recommendations? It's tough to tell when the bags say "fits most 15.4" or 15.6" screens," since this is 15.6 and the dimensions are a bit bigger/bulkier than most 15.6 laptops. Plus, online is tough instead of in person.

    Would like to stay $80 and below, otherwise I'd get a Northface Surge if it fit. Thanks
