    I have my eyes set on the Alienware Orion bag, intended for the M18x, so I know it will fit my Qosmio, but I want to know of a few other bags that have equal quality. :D

    I got mine from Lands End soft briefcase. Fits my 18.4 inch Acer just right.

    Might want to try slappa. They have some 18in backpacks and are supposed to be decent. Price tag is a bit high though.

    I have the alienware orion for the m17x and i have to say it is a very nice backpack. Also i got it for $48 with free shipping a week ago off of amazon so if you wait it out it might drop from the $83 it is going for now.

    I have Toshiba PA1453U-1BG8 18.4 inches Gaming Backpack whichfits t 18.4 laptop . It also has additional padding at the bottom of the backpack that I have not seen in other bags. It also comes with many pockets for cords, full keyboards, mice, etc.

    I can definitely vouch for the Alienware Orion. An amazing backpack it fits my Asus G73 very well. You can fit all your school and LAN needs into it while still keeping it's relatively thin profile.
