Just started a new job involving a lot of travel and I'm looking for a travel bag to contain the laptop and have enough room to get some clothes in for when I'm travelling (so I only have to take one bag!).

Any experienced suggestions appreciated?

Can't find it online in the UK, though. Must admit to not trying very hard....

I've got a slightly smaller one which holds my laptop, cables, washkit, and a couple of days woth of casual clothes, and fits in the overhead baggage comparment. Very nice bit of kit; paid $70 for it about 3 years ago, and have used it daily ever since.

I've had a number of Targus bags in the past. Would highly recommend the rucksack type as they are so much easier to cope with when travelling through airports etc.

I like techair bags or you could try crumpler for something a bit different. Crumpler website is a laugh, changes every time I view it.

Got me one of these for me lappy.

Not the most ergonomic to wear but it's hard wearing and best of all, looks nothing like a laptop bag

The best without a doubt.

Whether or not they fit your requiements is another Q.

Apart from the quality, and thought that has gone into the design, what I like is that they don't really look like laptop bags. My idea of an overnight bag is pants, socks and a tootbrush, anything longer than a night and I use clothing optimised luggage, and chuck my tech in the middle.

Tumi. Expensive, but nigh on indestructible.

I've got a black and silver Antler bag - I think I paid £20 in Dixons

Has enough room for a couple of days depending on the size of you lappy.
