    Hello again,

    I've been looking for a laptop bag for the past couple of days (just bought an REI sleeve) and whate to hear your opinion of Lenovo-branded bags.

    -->Are all pc-branded bags crap or are they're some exceptions?
    -->Also the Osprey Focus seemed a pretty solid bag, could anybody contribute experiences he had with is?

    And, of course, I will be very glad to receive any information about discounted bags.

    Thanks!

    I put my notebook in a sleeve, carry it in a backpack. I carry all my other files and such in my briefcase.

    Thanks for the advice, the backpack does seem like a more attractive option.
    Regarding the pc-branded backpacks, do you have any recommendations or should I go for the Osprey?

    Thanks

    I'm looking forward to buy a sleeve for my 14.1 hp dv2000 notebook. Which sleeve do you use?

    I use the Booq Vyper M for my DV2000T. It gives great protection, looks awesome, and fits well. There's a little extra room on the left/right sides, but the notebook doesn't move around.
