you can go for a handcarry like these:





or you can also go for a sling bag like this:



^ that can be used as a handcarry as well..

wah dont tell me you have all these? the second one looks like LV haha

@jind86 & arshad,
I wouldn't recommend a sling / carry case for laptop + charger + books cause it'll get too heavy. It will definitely take a toll on the person who's carrying it.

I recommend either the backpack version or the "air stewardess" looks; those cabin luggage look alike with wheels

Personally, I use these 2:


Crumpler: The King Single


Targus: Elegant Leather Tote

I'll try to get both. Bagpack and sling haha. Need to bring it to college and some books and stuffs.

Second that ! I'm also using Crumpler King Single in Olive Green . Although there is not much of pockets in the bag though.

nope i dont own these, just recommending arshad to get something like these.. yes that is from LV, in fact they are all from LV..

the sling bag is supported by your shoulders, similar to how a backpack would hang.. therefore there wouldnt be much difference in weight support.. plus, a sling bag just looks more professional..

@jind86,
I use both and the Sling takes a toll on the shoulders; the backpack is supported by the back so it's easier but you're definitely right about the sling back looking better than the backpack.

PS: I've several Associates in very high powered positions who uses a backpack and the reason we do that is because the sling backs just take a toll on us Guess we're just getting old.

invisible shield and speack case,may i know which better?

what kind of protection ur looking for ?

i know high position individuals who use a backpack as well, but that wasn't my point.. all im saying is a seek sling back or handcarry is going to help men look more matured and more professional.. you're not going to see james bond in his tom ford suit carrying a backpack to meet M in her office..

beg is like fashion accessories, buy as many as you can

change it based on occasion

@jind86,
... but James Bond is NOT real! I think one should get a bag for practicality; very well if it looks good but I think practicality should take priority

@cRazYee,
That's pretty expensive! But well.. if one's a fashionista, Y not?

james bond isnt real, but his appearance is.. anyway a macbook is only 2kg's light, how heavy can it be to carry it around? there's nothing here really about practicality.. i recently just purchased a sleeve, im currently walking around with just the sleeve in my hand, without a bag even..

protect outsite ones...

Jind86,

Occasionally i carried my MBP in my PRADA messenger bag or INCase messenger bag and I agreed it really looks nice But for me one bag (in my case its 2 ;-p ) does not fit for all situations where sometimes I need a backpack as well..so I am looking for a backpack.

Tink, Crumpler seems nice...I want yellow and green..makes me think of mangoes!!!

yeap sling bags do take a toll on the shoulders...yet i use messengers and i only use backpacks when needed....for example going back from kl to melaka...it's impossible to keep everything in a messenger...

@neekun,
If ur intending to get a Crumpler, see if U can get an overseas visitor to go with U to KLCC cause with their foreign passport, they're entitled this tourist discount of 10% at the KLCC Crumpler store.

I love my Crumpler so much, I don't take it overseas with me for fear it'll get dirty or torn

i thought they come with a limited lifetime warranty provided only the seams koyak that is

@nimrod323,
I sure wasn't aware Crumpler bags had lifetime warranty. Targus, does have warranty but I don't remember if it's lifetime or not.

targus depends on model, mostly lifetime.
