    Hi, I just bought an Acer Aspire 2920z. Was wondering if anyone has a suggestion for a laptop sleeve. I'm looking for something strong enough to take a couple of bumps - planning on putting the laptop in the sleeve then in a normal backpack.

    Are there any brands with a great reputation, or any to stay away from?

    Cheers.

    crumpler's "the gimp", use it for my macbook in a regular jansport backpack. it has taken a couple of bumps but since the sleeve is made out of neoprane (wet-suit material) it is well padded.

    also there is extra padding around the zip so that the zip doesn't scratch the casing of the laptop.

    www.crumpler.de i think is their website.

    I got a 2920z last week and i find it great except for vista which is horrible and really slows it down. I got a tech air slip and find it great aswell

    Id put XP on it, but the HDD doesnt have XP drivers so I cant. After cleaning the crap off of it, it runs well. Sometimes takes ages to shut down.

    Yeah I got it from laptopsdirect.ie, ordered monday night arrived thursday.
