maybe you two can coordinate colors.  I mean calling dibs on coffee, chestnut or black based on the wardrobe and accessories of two guys would be totally no homo.

when quality matters, and you don't want to look like a homo with a Prada or Coach bag

owner of that place:  make it look like Indiana Jones' bag so all the neck beards want it.  also, add this to the description:

•1 full-sized interior pocket for handguns or power cords, which can be pressed flat when not in use

Like Clams, I had a single strap laptop bag for a long time (series if them, actually).  However, I recently switched over to a backpack and won't look back.

Partly, it was because of a temporary back issue, but mostly for ease in travel.  Now, its just way more comfortable.  I am in an industry that is cool with this...I don't really have to be "fancy," so it is perfect for me.  go cats

Since you have back problems, I will give you a pass, but backpacks are for grade schoolers.  True story, A few people that I travel with for work have backpacks and every time I see them at the airport I ask them if they remembered their lunch money.   

well i bet that never gets old and is funny everytime.

backpacks are just too damn functional. When you're lugging around a 17" laptop for cad a backpack is as good as it gets.

but damn, this guy at the office always gets in some pretty good burns about it.

Guy at the office sounds like a winner.

What's he sporting in the bag department?

Just get a better version of what he has and make fun of him about his stupid POS bag.

the single strap samsonite thingy in this thread. He spent like $107 on it. He's a real big shot, ya know?

You should get him to bbs here.

[michigancat]

everyone, thank you for your suggestions. I will let you know how it goes.

[Skipper44]

well, the fancy saddleback single strap converts to a back pack in seconds as shown on this very slick youtube

Completely agree about the functionality of the backpack.  I mean, there are days when I am lugging around my single strap and pushing my luggage at the airport and I see my coworker with his comfy backpack just strolling along without a care in the world.  I throw out at "Hey, did your mom pack your lunch today?", but only to make myself feel better, you know?

[FP TC etc.]

Backpacks make you look like a college student who is dressed up for a presentation but still has his backpack because he's a stupid townie student who only has a backpack.

No offense to stupid townie backpack retards.

I have had this Tumi bag for a couple years. I have used it for quick small stuff like interviews, and I also carried it around Europe for a month. Great bag. Tumi is the best imo.

If you are going to grad school full time you had better go backpack.  It is school and you will be taking books to campus for multiple classes.  Nothing else has the room you need.

This looks to be more your style.  Seems very functional, too.   

[Stevesie60]

I have a very casual messenger bag. Why so casual, you ask? So I can use it for any occassion without feeling too formal.

[Dr Rick Daris]

i'm going to get a backpack and start wearing it a lot just to shove it in all of your dumbass faces. oh man, i have a bag that i purchased for a hundred dollars and wear over one shoulder, so i'm going to make fun of the guy with the backpack. wow. i thought that i had seen it all but it just goes to show

[michigancat]

Oh, great. While I packed up my laptop into my backpack, the cool coworker guy was really razzin' me. Said, "Careful, hope your crayons don't fall out! LMAO!" as he walked away with a slight lean.

to me the single strap is more comfortable unless you carry a lot.  if you carry a lot, then a backpack is better, but not carrying anything is best.
