    Just got my new 4501WLMi 15.4 screen.

    Im trying to find a good bag for it. I was planning on going for a Crumpler shoulder bag or backpack, they look cool, good colours, very discreet they dont really look like laptop bags.

    The thing is none of them fit. Are they dimensions of the 4501 really messed up or what? Width 36.4 Height 27.9 depth 3.9

    Crumpler have bags that fit 17 inch laptops but not to fit a 15.4 one! With the dimensions of the 4501WMLi

    Im very confused. Maybe the dimensions i have are wrong.

    Can anyone advise on a bag, if not crumpler then another good brand of laptop bag.

    Seems pretty good. Not really had a chance to play with it. Spent last night installing service pack 2 and updates to windows. Configuring network connections that kind of thing.

    Although build quality seems spot on good size, lightweight good feel to the keyboard.

    I have the Crumpler Crisp Suit bag, it fits the 4501 perfectly. I took a picture, have a look: http://www.boomspeed.com/macuis/DSC02516.JPG
