    Hey guys,

    I just got a new 17" laptop (Dell Inspiron 1720) and would like a suggestions (maybe some of you own a good one). I don't want a backpack, but rather a briefcase-style case. Besides the main compartment, I'd like pockets on the sides where I can put a charger and mouse, and room for CDs, papers, and pencils on the side.

    I appreciate any help choosing!

    Thanks.

    Wow Dook, I really like the look of that one! It looks high-quality. I'm gonna do some more shopping around and will decide soon.

    Thanks!

    Incredible... I just went to my local Best Buy and Circuit City, and the prices for cases were ridiculous there. Any DECENT looking case was at least $70, all the way up to $150. I immediately came home and ordered your suggested case, Dook_In_The_Urinal. It only cost $35 from a seller on Amazon. I appreciate the time you took to post your comment.

    Thanks!
