    I just received my m15x yesterday and it doesn't fit in my current laptop backpack. Any advice out there? I would prefer one that doesn't scream out "Hey! I must have a fancy laptop in this backpack". My current one looks like an ordinary backpack from the outside. It isn't a requirement, I'd rather buy a good one.

    Thanks!

    Thanks, the backpacks look great. I'm guessing I'll need a 17" one instead of the 15.6" ones since the m15x is a little beastly? (not sure if you know this since you have the m17x)

    Ya if i were you i would go for the 17" option. I have that and it just barely fits my m17x.

    I have a messenger bag for my M15x and it was for a 17" lappy. It fits snug even with the 9 cell battery out.
