    I know it's a really lame question and the answer is probably yes, but I'd just like confirmation :D I hope I don't have to get a 17" bag..

    I suppose it would depend on the bag. A metal case might be tougher than say a backpack. I would think anything that is a little stretchy would be OK.

    The Ferrari is really wide for a notebook, I'd be sure it fits before buying. Even if it does fit, it may fit too tightly and you'd be risking scratching the shiny top finish. I like to put mine into a sleeve, then put it into the laptop bag.

    I would say no. My z70va didn't really fit the 15 size bags that I saw, I had to go with a bigger one meant for a 17"

    I'm using a 17" Swissgear bag for my Ferrari 4005... and a sleeve as well...
