    Do you think my Vostro 1500 will fit in this?

    Hi, I really like this crumpler sophisticator bag.

    http://we-sell-crumpler.co.uk/Products.asp?PrdID=621

    The given dimensions for the laptop compartment are 36 x 27 x 6cm. My laptop's dimensions are 34 x 27 x 4.5cm. Do you think that extra 1.8cm on my laptop's width will prevent it from fitting in or do you imagine it would be possible to squeeze it in?

    Whilst I also like the Bucktaker, I think it will be just too big for my liking.

    Dimensions: Laptop Pocket W36cm x H27cm x D6cm
    Outside W42cm x H32cm x D15.5cm

    so I think that would work if you were off on your dimensions

    hi, ok i completely stuffed up my first post!

    the vostro dimensions are

    Width: 14.12" (35.8cm)
    Height: 1.65" (4.5cm)
    Depth: 10.59" (26.9cm)

    which suggests it would just fit in the sophisticator. however the official website lists that it will fit laptops up to 34x27x4,5cm.

    the websire i linked does state 36x27x6 however another one states 35.5x27x6 and yet another one says 34 x 26 x 4.5cm.

    This is just ridiculous and one way in which Crumpler lets itself down by having such a lack of clarity over sizes, let alone hardly anywhere to buy them instore in the UK.

    i am most confused! anyone in a position to let me know if it definitely does or doesn't fit? i dont want the hassle of having to return a bag.
