Excellent computer bag for journeying professional
By Edward Y. Wong
This bag is closely perfect. It has a good deal of rigidity to it so it may stand on it is own which is helpful when you put it down. I on occasion have to carry 2 laptops and it does so utterly (15.4" and 17"). The size is perfect, not like I'm going to trek over into the Amazon but may provide more than ample room for all sorts of activites/travel. The trend is towards too numerous compartments and sub-compartments/pockets, but once you get used to it, finding things become very easy. The Zippers work well, the padding and straps are excellent, and as a professional, this bag has a very high-tech, quality professional look to it. Weight is not feathery but is reasonable given it is semi-rigid structure and splendid protection. The outer top loop has a nice feel and detail to it when you to lift it up by the loop. Its very balanced on my shoulders and reduces fatigue = primary since I travel a lot by air and by motorcycle with it.

My single complaint is that it does not have a lower band or strap which allows it to securely wraparound a roll-on luggage's handle - utile when airporting around.

I probably need a life, but this bag has bettered the quality of it immensely. The other magnificent bags are the Synergy (same price) or the Maxuum (slightly cheaper), both by Swissgear but I don't think any individual makes a better functional or aesthetic bag than the Wegner Swissgear folks!

Returned bag for poor use of space, got Maxxum instead
By virtual.gretchen
This is a very well constructed bag, but the odd design of the diagonal separation among the more prominent back and middle compartments, and their equivalent depth, in truth limits what you may put into the bag. If you want to carry lots of legal pads, this would be a outstanding bag. I want one huge section for all of my books, etc., and a thinner division for the computer. I counterchanged this for the Maxxum (also Wenger), which is perfective for me, as well as cheaper! The Maxxum also adds an adaptable kangaroo pouch on the front which is very handy. Ah, I must also note that both of these packs have an across-the chest strap that is placed too high. I still use it because it actually helps with weight distribution.

Great Bag!
By Denis-Mounie
I got this for my sweety and he LOVES it. It fits his Dell Inspiron e1705 utterly and for those reviews complaining with regards to the zippers- they ought to have something different. The zippers on this bag are slippy but they lock, if you recognise what I mean. They won't unzip themselves.

It's got a great deal of room for his accessories, work things, books and an extra change of clothes for during one night trips.

I have to admit, I thought regarding getting one for my e1405, but can't warrant the expenditure when the laptop in a neoprene case transports well in my beat-up old Jansport. And he necessitated a backpack anyway.

We saw an airline employee journeying with the Pegasus from SwissGear and he had not one thing but fantasti things to say with regards to it. The only worry was getting one to fit his 17" computer. I purchased this backpack with a niggling sentiment from the iffy reviews, but let me put your mind at rest. He slipped it in and latched it and voila! Perfect fit. Snug but nowhere near worrisome. Plus, it's got a pocket for your Swiss Army knife. (but do not forget to take it out before heading to the airport!)

Highly recommended- and the price right now on Amazon is the best I've seen so far, saving up to $30 on other sites.
