    Since I have a back problem a messenger back style case is out of the question, but a backpack is fine. I need something that will hold a power brick, extra battery, and a few books/notebooks. I'd also like it to look nice. Oakley makes some cool looking ones, but I don't know how comfortable they are or how protective they are of the laptop. I have an HDX16t (16" screen), so I need something that it can fit into.

    What do you guys think of these, or do you recommend something else?

    As a person with severe back problems, I suggest that you get a roller instead of a backpack.
