i'd like some clarification on this as well. i have a rather standard sized shoulder bag for my laptop and it's 3 inches too wide. in fact, a lot of laptops are too big to fit the maximum sized bag listed. my macbook air is 13" wide, i will need to scramble to find a conforming 14" wide bag before tomorrow at lunch time. a 15" laptop would be problematic. richard -- [email protected] Averill Park Networking - GIS & IT Consulting OpenStreetMap - PostgreSQL - Linux Java - Web Applications - Search
