received my applesac today, its the same one as =Hanxz= in the pictures above, love the look, my macbook pro really feels snug inside..

the only issue for me is the "hair like" material which basically comes out from everywhere.. im not sure if it is just for "the original" model or for others as well.. i kinda thought it would be a little neater..

but still love it though =)

you can go for a handcarry like these:

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

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

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..

QUOTE(tinkerbel @ Jul 26 2009, 11:09 AM)
@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 biggrin.gif

Personally, I use these 2:

Crumpler: The King Single

Targus: Elegant Leather Tote

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 tongue.gif  Guess we're just getting old.

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..

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