Question : Problem: Looking for good notebook case for Macbook Pro 17 in.

I am looking for a good laptop bag for a 17 in. Macbook Pro. From my initial research, there does not seem to be a very good selection online or at local retailers for 17 in. laptops. I'd prefer a messenger bag, but any good bag recommendations would be appreciated. Alternatively, I would welcome anyone who has a 17 in Macbook Pro or Powerbook that has successfully fit it into a 15 in. bag, since the Apple 17 runs far smaller than most PC 17 in. sizes. Thanks!

uzzidesign -
i'm quite happy with it. had a bag from lemonfish before - nice design, bad durability (only 15 months until the strap vaporized ;-). our company bought a crumpler bag for the digital slr: almost the same price, but less spacious and i didn't have the impression that the stitching is much better than on my lemonfish.
that was one of the reasons for the booq! It's a good piece of craftsmanship and the durability so far is excellent. i carry most of the time loads of stuff with me and travel quite a bit, but it still looks like the first day (well, almost ;-).

the only reasons for me to go with the FoleeXL versus the exoXL were the additional pockets on the outside (one zipper compartment on the back, one magnetic flap on the frontside and additional accessory zip pockets on the side).

final thoughts? if you are willing to spend the money - go for it...

hope i provided some help on your decision!
