Hey i just got my 1330 and i need a good way to carry this thing around.
I am a college student and i carry around a backpack with atleast 2 txt books and a notebook.
I need a new backpack and a way to carry my notebook too.

Should i buy a laptop sleeve and a normal backpack and put the sleeve in teh backpack?/

Or should i buy a laptop backpack.

For whichever you suggest please give me a company/model name.
I cant find any sleeve for this 13.3 inch laptop.
I am using the 9 cell battery.

Note: (i bought this laptop used and im a college student so an economically cheaper option is much appreciated )

thx in advance

Depends on your budget. Timbuk2, Waterfield, Tom Bihn all make excellent backpacks/messengers. I personally would get a bbp - BumBakPak (google it) - it's on the cheaper side of things. But then again, you can always a get a Targus backpack - cheap and reliable with decent protection. I'd use the sleeve that came with the XPS and stick it in a backpack - just don't throw it around too much.
