Summary: 4 Stars
This is my fourth Targus item, I've purchased over the past five years.
Targus is usually pretty good about keeping your laptops safe.
The backpack is nice, but a little small.
Also, the padding for back support is a little thin when you have a hard laptop or sharp edged book in the back compartment.
The handle on the top is a little cheap compared to the more expensive models.
But honestly this model, dollar for dollar value, probably surpasses its more expensive brothers.
From what I've seen from my other Targus backpacks, is that they have a heavy-duty use (aka regular college experience) lifetime of about one year or so. Then after a year, the seams by the zippers of backpack will start to rip & what not. I have not had this happen yet with my model, & I've been using it for about three months so far. But I've had it happen to every other Targus Backpack I've purchased.
This backpack will comfortable hold 3-4 textbooks plus a laptop computer or 4-5 textbooks san a laptop.
There are three major pocket areas that can hold calculators, writing utensils, & other college peripherals.
Over all I really like this backpack for the money.
I've purchased the more the expensive Targus Models, they are very nice, but you have a tendency to loose more items in your backpack then store. (and the only have a shelf live of a year anyway.)
This is a good deal.
Update: (Aug 18, 2007 Year One with the backpack)
Wow, it's been a year since I've purchased this backpack, I've taken it camping, across country, across the Ocean and it's as durable & shiny as it was a month or so after purchase. (I'm very rough with my backpacks, this should be in tatters.)
No signs of wear and tear. Zipper is still fully functional. I'm very pleased with this backpack.
This is the best Targus bag I've ever purchased. Also, it's the cheapest Targus bag I've every purchase.
I still insist this is a great deal.
Update: July 30, 2008 (Year Two)
Wow, this backback is still going strong, no rips, no tears, and all of my zippers are still functional. (This is an awesome backpack.)
Digital camera Review: ABFAB!!! I couldn't love it more!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was using a very expensive, multi-hundred dollar, soft as a glove, leather bag for my laptop. I like this backpack much MUCH better. Why? Well, I'll tell you. Not only is my 15.4" laptop well protected, but this case is easier to carry and has all these little pockets that hold my iPod, pocket PC, folders, extra CD and DVD media, wallet, keys, pens, thumb-drives, lipstick, brush, you name it. It's replaced my purse and briefcase. Couldn't I get all those things in the other bag? Yes, and no. The brush had to be in with the folders in the other bag which caused the occastional embarrassing moment when I have had to pick hairs off folders. Not very professional. In this bag the laptop is in one place, the folders are in another place, and the personal items are in their own pocket.
Now, I will admit, that it's not as impressive to look at as my leather case; and even though it's basic black it doesn't match any of my shoes or outfits, but it's SO functional, I just make a joke to clients about going through my second childhood, and I go about my business. It's a great conversation starter.
If I had to haul textbooks too, I might want something larger, but if you're a busy professional, this case does it all, and you don't have to worry about where you set it as you do with the fine leather goods. Bottom line? I like it and would recommend it to anyone who needs a computer bag that can adapt to any situation. I liked it so much I even bought the wheeled version which has a great removeable neoprene sleeve for my laptop. Okay, lecture over.
Namaste
Digital camera Review: AMAZING!! With no doubt, I decided for this item.
Summary: 5 Stars
A friend of mine had it first in college, so I ordered inmediately because of the cheap price. It has several pockets for lots of stuff, it's so well made that u actually forget u're carrying a computer on it. The straps are really soft and wide, so your back wouldn't complain at all.
Go get it, U won't regret!
