Of the ones I have I keep returning to my Crumpler bag. It cost a small fortune (£120, so about $220) but it has room for loads and loads of stuff. Its been dropped countless times and never damaged my computers once. I did, for a while, manage to transport THREE laptops in it with ease. The only problem is that it is massive! And I'm not that big a guy. Right now, I have a £30 ($60) slip case for my MacBook Pro and I then place that in a while plastic drawstring shoulder bad that Apple give away in their retail stores - god help me when I drop it...

I've looked at the Sling Pack from incase and a Belkin sling type of bag too. I don't need to carry much, just the laptop, power-cord and extra mouse. So for me, a sling is the way to go.

I like STM (what I currently have) and also Booq (my last bag before the STM). I have had Targus bags in the past though. Now I'm mostly a backpack guy. Targus makes a pretty good bag.
