    It's extremely well built, really comfortable, and the laptop compartment is padded well. The thing is huge too. Lots of space in the general storage part, and the front pouch. The MP3 compartment at the top is really soft on the inside, as to not scratch anything placed in it. The bottom is a durable rubber, and causes the bag to support itself when empty. If you have the cash to spend on this bag, I would highly recommend it. Feel free to ask any questions. I also got the sleeve thing and the accessory pack.

    I have a BOA XL, although at the time, I got it for my 17" notebook as it was a perfect fit. Now with an ultraportable in my sig, I drop it in and it disappears! But I agree, its one of if not the best built and stylish backpack I have ever seen. Understated and very high quality. I bought mine over a year ago and it still looks brand new. The thing is built like a tank. I just wish it is smaller now as I have no need for the XL one. They really should make an S size for the ultraportable market.

    The Bianco looks really awesome. I almost got it, but going to college, I was afraid it would get dirty and I'm way to lazy to ever clean it. I'll write up a decent review later with my sister's 15.4" Toshiba in it. I'm still awaiting the arrival of my Compal IFL90 from xoticpc.com :)
