New bag arrived...

Yeah, went with black since it didn't come in the Pinestone the Retrospective bags came in.

I wonder if it will explode when I put my Chromebook and Android stuff in it..
 
I'm waiting delivery on a new bag myself. It's funny how my my wife was just saying that I have more camera bags than she has purses just as I hit "Submit Order."

I like the compactness of the Lowepro Compuday 250 backpack so much I ordered a second one for my everyday bag for work - fits my laptop and other work things plus a pocket for everyday camera - ZI and ZM 50 Planar.

And I agree - that is one cool bag.
 
What looks cool is it appears there is room for my Chromebook, my 9" Nook, my 7" tablet and a phone. The Toshiba 13" chromebook seems to be the same size as the 13" MacBooks. I wonder if my Nexus will fit where they plan for a iPhone. Although I do have a company iPhone. Too many electronic gizmos, too few bags...

LOL! So I'm not the only one who agonizes but these things. For me, an Asus Chromebook, and 8-inch tablet and 2 iphones (one for work and another for personal use). And if I need reading material, my Amazon Kindle. Waaaaay too many gizmos.

Which Asus chromebook? The 11" or the 13"? I like the 13" ones, the small ones I find the keyboard cramped. I have the Toshiba version.

But, I love the minimalist ChromeOS for a travel/backup machine.
 
I have the 11 inch chromebook. I have a 13.1 inch Dell XPS for Windows apps, so when I got the Chromebook, I wanted something smaller. I love the Chromebook. I also have a Chromebox - highly recommended!

I still have two functioning Windows XP desktops to upgrade to 7 or some form of Linux, but I see a Chromebox in the future if I don't get a Mac Mini at some point.

How big a monitor can the Chromebox drive? And does it handle two well?

My primary desktop is a 4-yr old Dell XPS 9100 on Windows 7, using dual monitors, one of which is shared with the Chromebox. The Chromebox does manage dual monitors so I suppose I can share both monitors, both of which are 24 inch Samsung monitors. I'm not sure about larger monitors. I just plugged in the Chromebox to an existing monitor. I'm content with what I have right now, although at some point, I will need to decide whether or not to stay on the Windows path or go to another platform. My primary need for the Windows platform is Photoshop.

If you do decide to get a Chromebox, I would definitely recommend adding memory. The one I bought from B&H came with 2, but if you open it up, you'll see two ports, so I just bought a 4GB RAM module. The max memory that the Chromebook can manage is 8gb.
 
The neatest thing about the bag is I am able to put the 13" laptop, 9" tablet, 7" tablet plus my phone. I'm sure I could get a second phone in there if I tried.

While smaller than all my other bags, it has more pockets and slots that two of my other bags.

Wow. Another home run by ThinkTank.
