    I need to get a bag for my Dell 9300 and am trying to decide between these two. I've seen some positive comments here for the Kensington. Was wondering if anybody has the Targus or can give any comparison between the two.


    Thanks.

    i just got a kensington contour 17" with a $20 mail-in rebate from tiger direct. it is really nice, plenty of room for all kinds of crap. it even came with a sleeve. fully loaded its still actually comfortable to lug around. im not exactly sure but i think the contour 17 is bigger (if its the same targus i saw at circuit city). hope that helps.

    circuit city (or best buy, i always confuse them) has both so you should be able to play with them in person.
