Simple Laptop Bag

Swissgear LEGACY 16" WA-7640-02F00 Computer Case
Swissgear LEGACY 16" WA-7640-02F00 Computer Case

Pros: Good size for laptop and not much else. Will be easy to travel and fly with. Nice storage options for flash drive, cell and other small stuff. Feels sturdy and well built. Fits 14inch dell with room to spare (for charger).

Cons: Not good storage for items that are not paper thin - like charger, travel mouse, external web cam, cell charger, etc.

Overall Review: This replaces a backpack for travel. Will force me to only carry the necessities. Back pack held everything, probably too much. Not sure if TSA will agree with me leaving laptop in opened bag (we'll see next week). No extra room for day planner, folders... just one notebook (but I also didn't want a bigger bag). This will be a convenient travel size. I do like the many pockets for storage of biz cards, flash drives, etc. Price was right when on sale.

Nice upgrade to HD video

Pros: It's quiet, easy to install, price is right, notable improvement in video quality. Most impressed with quiet operation and no need for additional power supply.

Cons: Registration on Sapphire's website offered 5 free promo downloads... although after registering... there's nothing to download. Got the impression that I could download games although seems just like a chance to collect my info.

Overall Review: Needed HDMI output to go with my new monitor. Not a gamer. More for HD quality video. First time I opened the case of my HP and this was very easy to install. HP Pavilion P6230Y Phenom II X4 810(2.6GHz) 8GB DDR3 750GB HDD (replaced ATI Radeon HD 4200) Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
