    I prefer oakley bags now that I have my ap 3.0. The ap and kitchen sink work well with 17in laptops, but are kinda pricey. Well worth the price IMHO.

    Check out the 17” Briggs & Riley Executive Clamshell backpack. The computer compartment of this backpack is designed to fit 17” laptop screens and its padded interior provides plenty of protection to the laptop. It can also fit files and folders, peripherals, tech gadgets, stationery and more!

    Targus XL Notebook Backpack is one of the biggest backpacks you can get, and also one of the most affordable - $47 on Amazon for all that room. Not the coolest looking thing, but very functional.
