ambivalent comment

Timbuk II bags are great. I have one, but I found it on closeout from a reseller (in kind of ugly colors) for abotu $30. It's one w/out a built-in laptop sleeve so I use a Marware Sportfolio as a laptop sleeve inside the messenger bag. It's a little pricy, but if you ever find you just want to haul the laptop around outside of your regular bag, the Sportfolio has handles, a shoulder strap, and an external pocket for small items. It all works great. Happy moving!!
