    Im looking at laptop bags now, I use a sleeve and backpack.

    Every backpack I see mentions 15 inch, but never 15.4. I made the mistake of thinking that my last bag I bought would fit mine, I mean whats that .4 going to matter? Aparantly it does.

    So my question, I am looking at the Viper XM atm, I should hope since it can come with the Viper L it would fit the sleeve as well, my question is will it fit a 15.4 or is it a tight 15?

    Thanks in advance.

    I am also open to alternative bags. Been looking around for a while and I really like the separate slot for the notebook this one offers, as well as space for everything I would carry.

    Cool thanks, yeah it appears that the backpack is fine, but the sleeve would not work with a 9v battery. :\

    I have the Boa3 L also...strangely I had never heard of booq products till this past December when I started researching a new laptop. Moreover, I have never seen anyone with a booq product so for now I will enjoy some exclusivity.

    I purchased based only on photos and when the bag was delivered it turned out to be even BETTER than the photos illustrated! wow

    Granted we all have different tastes and in reality that is what drives our purchases...but if you love your laptop and want to protect it, you OWE IT to yourself to investigate booq items before making a final decision.

    The information on them is limited, I recieved my bag yesterday and am happy in most regards. I will be posting a review on it today as soon as I get some pictures taken.

    I would give it an 7/8 out of 10. I havnt recieved my speakers yet so I will see how well they fit. I'll explain more in my review.
