Customer Review: Fantastic for the tech-dependent traveler!
Summary: 5 Stars

Even though I travel solely for pleasure these days I still go nowhere without my trusty laptop. Of course, this meant while going through airport security having to haul it out of my old backpack, make sure it was in a bin by itself, wrestle it back in, etc. Finally I said to myself "Self, you need one of those backpacks with the separate compartment for the laptop. Let's go shopping."

And I found this. My previous laptop backpacks have also been Targus and I've always been pleased with the quality and storage provided, so I hoped this would be no different. To my delight, it was not. Although it's set up more as a business carry-on rather than for someone like me who uses it on vacation or getaway weekends, for my purposes it suits me fine. The laptop compartment is the back pocket--note that it only zips partway down. My 15.8 fit perfectly with the velcro straps securing it further. Unlike my previous backpacks this only had one large compartment rather than two but it expanded quite a bit so I can get in enough clothes for a weekend trip. There's a very small pocket on the front of the bag that can fit a cell phone or an MP3 player, then a larger pocket below it which is outfitted like a wallet but which I use for personal stuff like toothbrushes and cosmetics. The two pockets on the side can be used for odds and ends (for me being stuff like my iPod charger cords and a place to stow my watch while going through security). The place where you unzip to separate the compartments is clearly marked by red letters on the zipper tabs.

I first used this on our vacation to New York, flying out of Richmond airport. I followed a previous reviewer's recommendation and had my and my husband's liquids bag zipped up between the compartments as well as the bag that stores my noise-cancelling headphones and iPod), which made it super-easy to toss into bins. The compartments lay flat ... and it zipped through the x-ray no problem. It did the same at Newark and Philadelphia airports. In fact I had a few people ask me where I got it! This is a great deal for the price and a boon for those who can't travel without being connected!
