I have always been one to place my perfectly good computer in a cheap department store off-brand bag. This bag was given to me as a Father's Day present by my kids who were tired (embarrassed) by my ripped old bag. This bag is sturdy, made with thick material and heavy stitching. There are ample pockets and sections. My netbook and my Kindle both fit easily and are protected. The one thing I wish Mobile would have paid more attention to when making this bag is the strap. The strap doesn't match the quality of the rest of the bag. Otherwise, it is great, and I'm sure I will use it for a very long time.
