    Hey guys,

    Anyone have suggestions on bags for this beast? I only wanna spend 50 bucks or less really, as that is all I really have to put towards it at this moment.

    Thanks for any tips and suggestions. :)

    I got the Lowepro Messenger for $25 on ebay.

    http://cgi.ebay.com/Lowepro-MESSENGER-L-Black-17-Notebook-Laptop-Case-Bag_W0QQitemZ300321260944QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item45ec8ac590&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A12|66%3A2|39%3A1|72%3A1205|240%3A1318|301%3A1|293%3A1|294%3A50

    It fits in the padded area perfect except for the battery sticking out but I can get the velcro to strap over it. Lots of room in this bag, it holds my laptop, ps, accessories, and my nc2000 cooler very easily.

    It even matches color wise. Check some reviews on it. It seems like a very durable bag and if you like or don't mind messenger type bags then this is the best bargain.

    Absolutely love. I keep everything in it, Its big enough to fits the 7805u bulging battery, Wireless mouse key board (stick out the top a little) charger cooling mat misc. other supplies.


    If you dont mind spending the money and can find it get it!


    cant find a video of it on youtube. but maybe ill make one this week... cant even list everything thats in It!

    Some great suggestions. Thanks guys!

    I have another question. Does anyone use one of those lap desks with their FX series? I am looking for something I can put on my lap that is comfortable and offers a hard upper surface for the laptop the sit on. I use this laptop while I am laying upright in bed 90% of the time.

    So it is confirmed that the P-7805u fits inside the 17" Belkin Sleeve completely and zips up?

    I got the Microsoft Impact Bag ($40 shipped now, they had a sale before I think it was $10 or so less). Fits our giant P78** laptop w/ battery attached, my zalman nc2000, the targus 180w w/ cord, my logitech mx310 mouse w/ mousepad, etc.. Closes, zips up, and matches the color scheme of the laptop :)

    Obviously the bag is kind of heavy, but it gives me portable gaming and everything is protected while it is transported. I am more than satisfied with this bag.
