    Not exactly a review. I'm far too lazy for that. But thought i'd show what replacement I went with after the one that came with my NP9170EM ripped after using it one time traveling from the US to Norway. I didn't even make it all the way there as I noticed it when I landed in London. I didn't even have the huge power brick in the bag. Just the laptop itself and a folder with some papers. So needless to say the free included bag is a cheap piece of junk.

    I ended up buying this one from Amazon for $50:

    Amazon.com: Samsonite Classic Three Gusset Lg Toploader (Black): Electronics

    First impressions are it seems like a high quality bag. The material feels pretty durable so I doubt it will be ripping anytime soon. The only con i've found so far is that the flap/pouch (the one where the laptop is supposed to go with the velcro strap that goes over it) isn't wide enough to fit the NP9170. As if it was designed for a 17" Macbook Air or something. I can slide it in most of the way but it just isn't enough to zip the bag close. It's not a big deal for me though because it fits in the area next to it just fine. It's also got a lot of room for other things (mouse, power brick, usb dvd drive, smart phone...you could even put another smaller laptop, netbook or tablet in this bag as well if you wanted. Anyways i'll just post some pictures and spare you and myself of a long poorly written "review". Just wanted to share my experience with others that might also be looking for a replacement laptop bag.

    Thanks for providing that Coors (big fan of the name by the way). Laptop bad questions are pretty common over here so it's good to see something like this posted.
