    So I just preordered my Sager NP8660, and I figured I should start bag hunting so that I'd have at the very least an idea, if not a bag by the time it arrives so that I won't have to scramble to find one before college starts. The dimensions are 15.6"w x 11"d x 1.37"~1.75"h.

    I need a bag that will be able to store the laptop, power brick, and at least a few thin spiral notebooks and hopefully one textbook. So far I've been looking at a few models that might fit the bill for me, but I wanted to get your opinions on them, as well as get an idea for what other models might work for me.

    The first was the targus Flare : http://www.targus.com/us/product_details.asp?sku=TSB07402US. It's on sale right now, and the design really appealed to me, but I'm not sure on the storage space-- does anyone have experience with it?

    The second was the SwissGear Pegasus. I liked it but the design doesn't really appeal to me all that much. The storage space was really nice though, so if the Flare can't meet my space necessities, I wouldn't mind going for this.

    I'd like to keep the price under 70 or so if possible, but I can stretch that if a bag really seems like the perfect fit. Thanks for the input :)
