    dv5000t has a 15.4" screen.

    So far one I really like is this Samsonite L35 Notebook Case

    Anybody know a good laptop case that looks like the one above where I can fit my laptop and room for my mouse, ac adaptor and a few minor accessories? I really like the Samsonite one above, but I want to look at other options before I buy it.

    Don't want anything too flashy, just a simple black case to store my laptop and accessories. Not really looking to store folders or papers in it.

    Well if you want to go really light check REI E-Wrap sleeve the at rei.com.

    It holds my lock, ac adapter, mouse and a few other things in the front pouch. Plus if you wanted to you could throw it into a backpack or messenger bag at any time.

    Samsonite has great products and if it's what you like, get it. If I was to get a plain bag like yours I'd go with Victorinox because I've used many of their products before and so I favor them.

    I don't really care how much it weighs, just the depth. Don't want it too thick.

    The REI sleeve is one of those, "as thin as it gets," sleeves. At least for putting a shoulder strap on it and carrying around stuff in its pocket.
