Just ordered my XPS yesterday, and I didn't order the backpack case that was available because I don't like the backpack style.
Just wondering what you guys use to carry this monster around - I'm a little worried about the power brick fitting in a standard 17" case, with a mouse and headset in there.
-
the whole reason i use a backpack style is because the messenger bag style one imo dont offer as much storage. but check otu slappa.com they have a new messenger bag that is HUGE it has like 1500sq inches of storage. i have one coming along with the backpack i have here from them. they make great stuff..
see here for my quick review and lots of pics of their backpack: http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=249997 -
I ended up just buying the XPS backpack for mine. I don't regret it. I can't find any other bag that can carry both the brick and the notebook.

that slappa bag can carry two 17" laptops in it.. lol there is enough room..just thought id give you an idea of its real storage abilities..
-
That Slappa bag is kind of pricey...but it does have a decent amount of storage room from the pictures.
My concern with the messenger bags is that, since I usually carry the bags by the handle rather than the shoulder, the clasps would somehow fail and my case would fly open. But, I don't really take my computer that many places anyway.
Thanks for the suggestion! I'll browse around their website a little more today. -
After looking at the pics, no, I wouldn't buy that backpack for the m1730 unless you are planning on using it for 45 mins on battery power. The dell bag at least has a separate compartment for the charger along with more storage space and plenty of padding.
Decent case for the XPS M1730?
