I can carry it by the handles, or over the shoulder, but the strap is removable if you don't need it. My laptop fits with room to spare, and the case is very lightweight. if you need. My laptop from work (14" Dell) came with a bulky, heavy case. I wanted something much lighter and easier to use on a daily basis, and this fits the bill perfectly. There is also room for papers, pens, etc.
So thumbs on on the build quality and materials. ALL of the interior pocket layouts have been changed, much to my disappointment. These will wear out quickly.As mentioned, Targus re-designed this bag. Pictured is the original Targus CVR600, however, this backpack model has been revised. New design only has 1 outer-side zipped pocket.
NOT AS PICTURED. My original CVR600 lasted over 2 yrs with heavy wear (books, laptop, 10 lbs of handtools). Thumbs down on a less than innovative strap padding/design. They removed the other zipped pocket for a bigger open mesh pocket. Targus CVR600.
That being said.Heavy mesh on the outer pockets, rugged covering for those times u sit ur bag in the damp grass or whatever. If I'm not able to upload the pics, csnoffice has the updated pics on this model.
I returned it. I made my purchase based on a review for a different bag even though it was on the page for the CVR217. Targus CVR217 Neoprene Slip Case for 17"" Notebooks (Black/Blue)"Bag had cheap feel and looked like the clips on the shoulder strap could break easily. Be careful to make sure that the product review you are reading is for the bag you are looking at.
Not bulky, but has room for cds, dvds, etc. Just what you need to keep portable laptop safe for transport. Targus CVR217 Neoprene Slip Case for 17"" Notebooks (Black/Blue)"
i bought this for a christmas present and worked well for my mother si nce she only needs to carry her laptop around the house. if ur looking for a bag thats for serious travel or if you plan on taking your laptop out somewhere it will be roughed around you might want to upgrade but its still a nice bag just for light travel or to keep laptop in.
