    Hey. I have an Asus G50V-A1 which is approximately the size of a 17" laptop with a very small margin around the screen (the laptop is actually 15.4"). Very quickly, I realized carrying it around in my backpack will ruin my already tennis-ruined shoulder... so I've resorted to carrying it around by hand. Can anyone recommend a good carrying case/sleeve (not backpack and especially NOT a messenger bag) for such a large laptop? I'm interested mostly in protecting it.

    The dimensions are 14.2" * 10.5" * 1.1"-1.6"

    It did but despite the ample padding, its still a pain on my shoulders. It is, however a very good bag.

    Thanks for the tip but its difficult as I'm not in the US (am in Singapore)

    Ah yes, the Zeroshock III. Prior to your comment, I thought only 13" zeroshocks were available. A quick google search fixed that. Thanks!
