Ive been using this one for almost two years now: http://www.targus.com/us/product_details.asp?sku=TCG650

Its a pretty good backpack and its not that pricey, ~$80.00.

definitely north face. i've had mine for about 6 years and counting. i have a few other friends who also have north face laptop backpacks and swear by them. i think there's a lifetime warranty, but don't quote me on that. i paid about $120 for mine. i take it along everywhere, even if i'm not bringing along my laptop. it's super sturdy and has those reinforcement straps.

Dell has a good bundle sale going on a different targus backpack.

Targus is alright for the price... every student at UOIT has one as it comes with the laptop. Im on my forth year and its as good as new.

Targus backpack or shoulder bag?

I had the shoulder bag when I went there, it was great, light small, well built, durable...

my buddy had the Targus backpack, it was crap, ya it was well built, but it weight a lot with NOTHING in it...
