    Hi all!

    I've got an Asus G1s and I need something bigger than the bag they give you. I need to be able to carry the laptop without any problems, several notebooks (maybe 5), and finally 1 or at the max 2 bigger textbooks.... Can anyone give me some suggestions?

    Thanks,
    Eric Huang

    You also might want to check out the Mobile Edge premium backpack. I use the same one for school myself and it carries my HP dv6000 plus notebooks and school books like a champ. Here's a link to check it out:

    Here is a link to the Alienware bag as well:

    Either way, both are pretty sick bags. If you want to check out some product reviews on the Premium Backpack go to www.MobileEdgeBlog.com.

    Hope this helps. Good luck with school!

    Timbuk2 makes amazing bags. In my opinion, hands down the best.

    Also, you don't necessarily need a notebook specific bag. You can buy a sleeve and stick it in any backpack safely.

    I have the OGIO Politan for my 14.1 and I love it! Great back support.

    Not sure if your laptop would fit (15in max I think), but its very roomy for other things. I regularly carry around several notebooks, engineering texts (UGH!), and I've been carrying around my new notebook this week and it feels solid.

    Yes, I do work for Mobile Edge. I'm stoked to hear you dig our bags, we're pretty proud of them :).

    If you live in Canada, have a look at Heys' ePac15 line of notebook backpacks. I myself have a 17" for my Sager and I really recommend it.
