Perhaps I just spent too many years toting a backpack around, but despite the fact that I love my laptop to pieces and take it everywhere I go, I don’t really care for my laptop bag. I have a fairly decent shoulder bag for my laptop that I use, but it irks me as I’ve always preferred backpacks.

I do have a small leather backpack that has a soft velvet-like interior that I sometimes use to carry my laptop, but it was clearly never meant for such a thing. It doesn’t have much room and once I put my laptop in the main section and a few things, such as my earphones and thumb drives, in the front zipper, it feels like it’s going to burst. That and the backpack really isn’t that sturdy feeling either. Oh sure, I have my old backpack that I could use, except it would definately scratch my laptop up to hell and back.

At first I didn’t spy anything at Buy.com’s weekly sale that really caught my eye, but then I happened to take notice of this awesome looking Samsonite Laptop Backpack. It comes in a beautiful color (black!) and fits up to 17 inch screens with ease. Buy.com has it on sale for $31.99 (a savings of $18) which is a pretty fair price. I mean come on, this is a Samsonite backpack. Samsonite is one of the few brands that I trust whole heartedly, no matter what, and will always pick their products if the option is available. They’re durable, long-lasting, and well worth the price. All of my luggage is Samsonite, so I would definately trust my laptop to them.

And hey, I could always write it off as a business expense too. I mean, I would be using it to transport my laptop and I do primarily use my laptop for business purposes when it’s being lugged about.
