wow , I can not believe it be be 7.5 year that I have owned\/used this bag ! I buy two of they in November 2000 - one for I , one for my mom . we both use they extensively . I keep wish Amazon would bring it back ! this tote hold EVERYTHING . I have not use it much as a laptop tote , but it work well for that . otherwise , the laptop pocket be great for transport papers and magazine since that compartment be separate . the outside pocket be roomy without thing get too lose into it , and there be extra hang pocket inside the main compartment as well as a removable keychain clip . the bag itself be lightweight but very durable . it be awesome as a airplane carryon . this be a fabulous value at $ 5.95 when I buy it - worth well over that price .
