    Hi,

    I have been checking out some laptop bags recently for my impending Vostro 1500 which should arrive in a couple of days.

    The crumpler ones are the best I have seen. I am not sure which one in particular, as I like so many of them and am open to getting either a Rucksack or a shoulder bag. The only problem is I need to know for sure that it will fit my laptop before I buy, and the online size descriptions are often quite confusing and vary from site to site!

    I prefer the ones that come in black and silver colours, quite inoffensive but very stylish, I'm not a fan of the garish colours/patterns.

    Can anyone point me in the direction of one that will definitely accommodate the Vostro 1500 as well as some university binders? Bear in mind that it is 15.4" therefore I cannot be sure the ranges that go up to 15" fit it.

    Thanks!

    Thanks for that.

    I really liked the Sheep Scarer and the Glory Box ones, but I don't think either of those will fit it.

    Are the rucksack ones really really big or are they about the same size as normal Eastpak/Jansport type bags?

    I'm more used to carrying rucksacks than shoulder bags, but as I say, I'm not opposed to either! If the rucksacks are monstrous then I don't want one. I only have the 6 cell battery with my Vostro.

    BigBadBenny, thanks for the PM, do you work for crumpler??!

    Any idea what models will definitely fit my laptop bearing in mind my above requirements?
