As I wrote about a month and a half ago, I was going to go on a mission on one of my last days in Seattle to possibly purchase a Tom Bihn backpack and bay for my laptop. Well, because of their hours (10am-4pm) I wasn't able to get in to check them out like I wanted to. With that slight burn from the conflict of scheduling, I wasn't able to check them out first hand.
Once I returned to Portland I headed straight to various establishments to check out some backpacks first hand. The place that actually landed my purchase was the Best Buy out by the airport in Portland. The laptop backpack I finally got was a
SwissGear by
Wenger. The specific backpack is an
IBEX Computer Backpack.
