    I need a bag, as cheap as possable, for my Quanta KN1-PM with a 15.4" Widescreen. I need it for the laptop, power cord, a travel mouse, and school stuff (books, notebooks, etc). If you could provide links to where to buy them that would be super. Thanks!

    I use a Targus CityGear Chicago backpack to haul my KN1 to and from class every day. So far, I like it; it's a backpack, and it doesn't cause any discomfort. The only thing is that at least ten other law students also use the same backpack, so it can look pretty silly to run into your friends when they've got the same thing on their backs.

    I think I like the tragus out of all i have seen thus far. My big issue is additional storage to the actual laptop. I need room for things like notebooks and an algebra or physics book. Do you think there will be room for all that?

    I carry my KN1-PM around in a Roadwired Skooba Satchel that I picked up from Amazon for $70.

    In addition to the KN1, I also carry the AC adapter, a compact umbrella, a 1-liter water bottle, a sack lunch, a binder, and maybe one or two law school casebooks (think large, boring textbook with no pictures) in my Targus. So I definitely think there's more than enough space for stuff in this backpack.
