Have bad experiences using sling notebook bags. Especially an older notebook of mine which was 3kg...whoa....I ended up with Blue-Black lines on my shoulder....
Get a back-pack.
Come discuss backpacks/slingbags for Laptops here., TARGUS, DICOTA, CRUMPLER or any others?

QUOTE(BuFung @ Sep 28 2005, 06:01 PM) Was at Harvey Norman awhile back. The range of Targus backpacks are limited. The prices were even worst (very expensive, think the price was abt RM300++). Dun think I can negotiate there.I'll check out Lowyat Plaza this weekend. |

QUOTE(Jason @ Sep 29 2005, 12:44 AM) hehe, dude i paid full price too, AUD$199, April 2004. well.. i only used it twice.. seldom get to travel... 2nd time i got sore too.. maybe carrying it for too long.. while doing glacier walk... i would advice against getting sling bags for notebooks..you'll get sore shoulders in no time. crumplers look cool, but to use their sling notebook bags..you sure gg. i'd get the Targus Revolution over a crumpler backpack..

Just be aware of your surroundings when you carry your notebook backpacks. I used to carry a baton with me when Im walking home at 2am with my notebook in my backpack every night. Luckily for me my bag has those contours like the EPIC(Holds your backbone and shoulders in position) so if outnumbered can still runaway. But if one on one...Im gonna use the baton.
If on public transport, you'll have to make sure your bag doens't go out of sight. Make sure its secured properly so that a slightlest pull will alarm you. |

ACtually never take off ur bag wherever u go. The good thing bout targus revo bag is that the laptop compartment cannot be open easily when ur using the bag. The main reason i got a laptop backpack is that i dont want to use the normal laptop bag which literally scream I HAVE A LAPTOP!! COME ROB ME!!!

Targus kinda huge for a female (unless you're big size)... well, just my opinion...p/s: If you're interested, i can get Targus Revolution at RM250. (Price increased.) |
