    Hey,

    I am looking for a good bag for a Dell 1720. I am a college student and I take the laptop out about three times a week, so it won't be used very heavily. But this could change in the future. What is the best bag that is a compromise between quality and price? I am looking for something with a maximum price of $30 ($25 preferrable).

    Thanks

    Get this bag:

    Matches your laptop, because it's made by dell! I've had it for about 3 weeks now. It's pretty nice. It has a nice laptop compartment for 17" laptops, and another smaller one for a netbook (why you would need both at the same time is beyond me...)
    It's huge. It's one of the biggest non-camping backpacks I've ever seen. I've fit this much stuff in it: 1 laptop, 1 set of clothes, 2 textbooks, 2 1" binders, a novel, and all the needed accessories for the laptop (mouse, microfiber cloth, headphones, charger, flash drive, and a portable hard drive.) Yeah it was heavy :p
    It's heavily padded, so the laptop stays safe, and your shoulders don't fall off.
    The fabric used in it is thick and high quality. It's rigid, and it sounds kind of like plastic. I think this backpack could easily last 2 years or more.
