This is EXACTLY what I'm thinking.
I have similar requirements:
-messenger style with attache option
-light
-professional, but somewhat trendy (messenger with
flap comes to mind)
-room for say, a PSP, Nintendo DS, portable hard drive
-letter size compartment to fit manila folder size
and/or letter notebook (as you said)
-ALL WITHOUT SQUASHING stuff to the bottom.
Thank you for the feedback. I will make note of the
macbook remote and display adapter sizes.
Btw, what size macbook are you using? 13" or 15" pro?
Thanks again,
Brandon
