Review: Tom Bihn's Ristretto bag for the MBA: Since Apple announced the MacBook Air a cottage industry has developed around building bags for Apple's teeny subnotebook. Tom Bihn has released a great little new bag in this category called the Ristretto. The Ristretto Messenger is a vertical messenger bag similar their Cafe Bags designed to...; Tags: MBA, Apple MacBook, Compartment, Ristretto Messenger, Notebooks, Hardware, Notebooks & Tablets, Jason D.

Kata DR-467 Digital Rucksack: Lately, I've been obsessed with camera backpacks. It's not easy to find one that does everything I need, since I use backpacks to haul all different size SLRs, from the smallest entry-level, to the largest, integrated-vertical-grip pro bodies. Kata's DR-467 Digital Rucksack proved to be a very versatile bag and...; Tags: Memory, Notebooks, Kata DR-467 Digital Rucksack, compartment, memory card; Product reviews 2008-03-12
Getting a Canon Rebel XSi or Nikon D60? Stow it in this.: With so many recently announced entry-level DSLRs hitting the market (besides the Canon Rebel XSi and Nikon D60, there's the Pentax K200D and Sony's sub $900 trifecta, the Alpha DSLR-A200, -A300, and -A350), this new backpack from LowePro is going to come in handy with a lot of folk. I...; Tags: Nikon Corp., Camera, Canon Inc., Backpack, Compartment, Janice Chen; Blog posts 2008-02-11
Cutebug Messenger: Were it not for its slightly large size (the better to accommodate your 15.4-inch laptop), we'd think the $90 Mobile Edge Cutebug Messenger was another trendy everyday bag. But behind its vinyl front flap--like the Cutebug Sheba we reviewed earlier this year, decorated with a striking image taken from a...; Tags: Notebooks, compartment, laptop computer, organizer pocket, Cutebug Sheba, laptop compartment, Velcro; Product reviews 2007-12-12
Targus Radius Convertible Messenger/Backpack - notebook accessories bundle: While a 15-inch MacBook laptop from Apple is really about the same size and weight as a 15-inch laptop from any other PC maker, Targus strikes a clever marketing note by specifically advertising its Radius Convertible Backpack as designed for 13-inch and 15-inch MacBooks. The $99 case is, of course,...; Tags: Notebooks, notebook, laptop computer, backpack, compartment, accessory, Apple MacBook; Product reviews 2007-11-29

Kensington Contour Active Notebook Vertical Messenger - notebook carrying case: Messenger-style bags can make you look like, well, a bike messenger or a disaffected hipster, while stuffy business cases look out of place on anyone not wearing wingtips. Our preferred laptop bag style these days is the saddlebag, sometimes called a vertical bag. These are longer than they are wide,...; Tags: Notebooks, notebook, laptop computer, Kensington Contour, Kensington, compartment; Product reviews 2007-11-19
Lowepro Vertex 200 AW: Lowepro likes to cultivate a rugged image. Maybe it's because the company's founder Greg Lowe is a world-class mountain climber and invented the world's first internal frame backpack, or maybe it's because they know the liberating feeling of having your camera equipment in a bag that can keep it safe...; Tags: compartment, main compartment, Vertex, backpack, Lowepro Vertex 200 AW, Vertex 200 AW, accessory, laptop computer, camera; Product reviews 2007-10-26
Targus Cha Cha Women's Tote: Designed for women who want a stylish bag to carry their laptop on a daily commute, the Targus Cha Cha Women's Tote looks more like a Burberry satchel than a laptop bag. Unlike a satchel, however, the Cha Cha Tote's interior includes a padded laptop compartment, organizer pockets, and a...; Tags: Notebooks, Gender and diversity, exterior, center compartment, Cha-Cha Tote, laptop computer, Targus Cha-Cha Women, compartment, Targus, women; Product reviews 2007-10-19
Tamrac Express 6 Camera Bag: It's amazing how complex some camera bags can be these days. Some have tiny pockets that are just the right size to hold Compact Flash cards and fancy backpack harness systems, which can be fine-tuned to put the weight of your cameras and lenses over your center of gravity to...; Tags: Digital media, Digital music, compartment, Tamrac Express 6 Camera Bag, main compartment, SLR, Express 6, camera; Product reviews 2007-10-17
Lowepro Clips 140: As camcorders keep getting smaller, so do the bags we use to carry them around. Lowepro's latest line of camcorder bags, called the Clips line, keeps things simple while giving you a place for all the essentials. The bags come with long straps and are meant to be slung over...; Tags: Clips 140, camcorder, main compartment, compartment, Lowepro, zipper, divider; Product reviews 2007-10-09
Pacsafe CourierSafe 100: Even though it looks like a standard messenger-style laptop case, the $119 Pacsafe CourierSafe 100 packs a wealth of hidden security features into its unassuming frame. After all, it makes sense that a bag containing your valuable laptop, and potentially even more valuable data, should have some fairly robust security,...; Tags: Notebooks, compartment, Pacsafe CourierSafe 100, laptop computer, Pacsafe MetroSafe 300, combination lock; Product reviews 2007-10-02
Pacsafe MetroSafe 300: While suitcases and briefcases tend to have standard locking mechanisms, the humble laptop case is usually secured by nothing more formidable than a zipper, or maybe some Velcro. It makes sense that a bag containing your valuable laptop, and potentially even more valuable data, should have some fairly reasonable security...; Tags: Notebooks, compartment, Pacsafe MetroSafe 300, laptop computer, Velcro, combination lock; Product reviews 2007-09-14
Solo Urban Vertical Messenger Laptop Case: The search for the perfect laptop bag is a complicated one. Add too much padding, and a bag becomes unwieldy. Too little, and your laptop isn't protected. Too many pockets will leave most of them unused and wasting space, while having too few means everything has to be stuffed into...; Tags: Notebooks, laptop computer, laptop case, compartment; Product reviews 2007-09-06
CODi Mobile Max: For business travelers tired of carrying both a bulky laptop bag and a carry-on suitcase, the CODi Mobile Max provides a padded laptop space, plenty of organizer pockets for accessories, and a compartment large enough for a change of clothes and/or shoes in one compact bag. The wheeled bag also...; Tags: compartment, zipper, Mobile Max, accessory, laptop computer; Product reviews 2007-09-06
Targus 15.4" Messenger - notebook carrying case: The $50 Targus 15.4-inch messenger occupies a middle ground between basic-black, business-oriented laptop bags and wildly colorful--and more expensive--Timbuk2 messenger bags. Though its broad exterior panels are colored drab olive, gray, and black, flashes of road-sign yellow on the top flap, mellowed by an overlay of black mesh, keep the...; Tags: Notebooks, Digital music, Digital media, notebook, Targus, Velcro, laptop computer, compartment; Product reviews 2007-08-17
CODi Sling-Pak Ultra-light Sling Backpack: When we're reviewing a laptop at CNET, it goes with us everywhere. So we've spent a lot of time thinking about the best way to carry our laptop. We enjoy the look of messenger-style bags, but they can be hard to carry comfortably--with many models, the weight distribution strains your...; Tags: Notebooks, laptop computer, CODi Sling-Pak, zipper, compartment; Product reviews 2007-08-16
Tamrac Expedition 5 Model 5575 - backpack for camera: Most camera backpacks are geared toward professionals, who have a vast collection of lenses, SLR bodies, flashes, and everything else that goes along with pursuing photography as your chosen vocation. That often leaves nonpros to choose between buying a bag that's just too big for them, or opting for something...; Tags: Tamrac, compartment, main compartment, camera, Expedition; Product reviews 2007-08-15
Kensington Contour Roller - notebook carrying case: Let's make this clear: the $100 Kensington Contour Roller is not for amateurs. Designed to hold a 17-inch laptop with all its attendant cords, accessories, and work files, this bulky laptop bag weighs 7.4 pounds on its own--as heavy as many desktop-replacement laptops. Fortunately, you rarely have to carry...; Tags: Notebooks, notebook, Contour Roller, zipper, laptop computer, compartment, Kensington Contour Roller, Kensington; Product reviews 2007-07-18
SlingShot 300 AW Camera Bag: There was a time when camera bags were all ugly, boxy contraptions. They managed to keep your gear safe, but their designs left a bit to be desired. Luckily for us, that's no longer the case. If you want them, you can get those old, boxy designs, but you can...; Tags: Monitors & displays, compartment, main compartment, Slingshot, Velcro, flap, camera; Product reviews 2007-07-06
Kensington Contour Cargo Messenger: If you think all laptop bags are the same, it might be time to take a look at the $59 Kensington Contour Cargo Messenger laptop case, which pleasantly surprised us with its features and comfort.
