    Hi,

    I'm looking for bags to go along with the new 14" widescreen T61's that we purchased. I'm looking for your typical over the shoulder notebook bag. The priorities are:

    1. Weight (the lighter the better <2lbs would be ideal)
    2. Protection
    3. Price

    I've considered the Targus Ultra Lite models, but I was wondering what else is out there.

    Thanks,
    Ed

    The Samsonite L35 is an option.

    It weighs 3 pounds. I'd like to get something lighter if possible.

    Do you have the 6 or 7 cell battery? If so, keep in mind the added dimensions when picking a bag.

    I have the 14" widescreen T61 and have a Timbuktu laptop messenger bag that fits it well.
