    I want a bag that I could fit my Toshiba M40 inside, and at the same time hold one or two textbooks and a mid size thermos. Any body has any suggestion for a brand that looks decent with decent quality, but price that's not like sky rocket like booq?

    Take a look at eBags first. Some of the best designed bags are very expensive though.

    The Tom Bihn and the Crumpler looks really good, problem is they are not big enough and they do not have a divided section just for the notebook. Or they're too expensive. I'm looking for somewhere around $70. I like the Targus backpack, http://www.targus.com/ca/product_details.asp?sku=TCG650 but it lacks style. So do you think you guys have anymore suggestions?

    Chromebags.com - they make some beautiful bags. They are made of sail cloth. Also - good prices. Recommended!
