The bag itself is nicely padded, and so offers the laptop some protection without being overly bulky. The one I have is suitable for laptops up to 17", and for anyone interested, the exterior dimensions are 46cm x 38cm x 9cm, with the notebook dimensions being slightly smaller.

Well what it means on a daily basis is that you can perhaps do away with the need for ...
