Per my much earlier post, I did extensive searching for a net-b backpack and was severely underwhelmed by the amount of variety/selection/options. Don't get me wrong, there are a plethora of options for toting your net-b but it breaks down like this:
Low end of the spectrum - poly sleeves (basically glorified envelopes, made slightly oversized out of koozy/packing material) Check a sample here. Typical price range is ~$10 - $20
Mid-range - cases (these can be hardshelled or soft and typically upgraded materials (including leather) and add a pocket or storage space on the exterior) Check a sample here. Typical price range is ~$22 - $33+
Upper end (for lack of a better term and staying with an experience/cost grading scale) - backpacks (very limited offering for backpacks specific to the netbook. I found a handful of netbook specific backpacks but the look/feel/price wasn't very compelling) Check a sample of netbook backpacks here. Typical price is ~$30 - $50+
After much consideration and search/comparison, I ended out selecting this SwissGear Computer Backpack. I must admit I was very impressed with all the feature/functionality/coolness this bag provided save on issue - SIZE. It is a full sized backpack. The laptop/netbook section works fine but the footprint is well, fullsized. The up-side to that size is you can carry all the bells and whistles for your beloved net-b (external drive, cooling pad, external speakers, wireless mouse, etc).
To all the net-b OG's out there - Whatcha sportin'? Give me a shout back!
