Targus RGS012 - Nice bag . (Amazon has confusing review interface) NOTE on the interface first: Amazon's review system is really weird in this case where the drop-down selection is for *different* back-packs (unlike the usual where it's only a color scheme change). Like me, you might end up reading a review for a particular back-pack which is not really the one you are looking to buy, just because the reviews for all five bags are mixed up together and not filtered as per the back-pack selected.
This review is specific to the Targus RGS012 15.4 Slam ...

Great so far (2005) Two months with this bag an it's still getting me to school. I haven't had any reliability issues.
The good:
1) It'll hold everything. I carry so many books to school I used to carry a backpack and a laptop case. Now I just have this bag.
2) Big straps to hold the load.
3) Lots of compartments to help devide up and secure the stuff.
4) Padded back
The Bad:
1) Laptop sits between your back and your load. It's padded, but this doesn't stop the weight of t...

Very nice Notebook Backpack I had been carrying my notebook computer in a standard notebook case (not a backpack) and began deciding to leave my notebook at home instead of deal with the discomfort of carrying it through an airport or large building. Someone recommended that I try a Targus backpack, and I have not regretted switching a bit.
The RG0322 Matrix is a great Backpack. The shoulder straps are well padded and distribute the weight very well. There is plenty of room inside to hold everything I need to...

Excellent Bag with LOTS of Space I bought this backpack to allow myself to travel around my college campus and keep all my books and supplies with me. This bag is more than up to the challenge.
It will carry 3 2" 3-ring binders, 3 textbooks, 1 lab manual, 1 personal book, an endless barrage of cables, cords, and accessories for my computer, pens, pencils, and just about everything you could possibly need. The front flap is elasticized, which makes it very convenient for carrying thin, light-weight items like the da...

A MBA student Pros:
Great Price
High quality
Many small pockets
Cons:
Divider may add the backpack weight
No a bottle holder
the little cd backpack has only one connector in front. It should has two connector
It is a good Backpack. This backpack can hold my two textbooks with 1,000+ pages each. Also, I carry my notebook around. It perfectly fits with Dell Inspiron 1150.
The only disadvantage that I found is that there is no bottle pocket. You can ...

only one good quality The only good thing about this bag is the size. It is able to hold a large laptop and a few text books plus a few other little things. What is a turn down is the lack of water resistance. In one single down poor, water leaked into the bag and caused damage to the contents. One test book is completely water logged and the others have large amounts of damage. The customer service stinks. When I filled out their little comment/warranty form online, a massage said a reply would be sent within ...

Size, Comfort, Price and Features Excellent features and excellent price for a cavernous back pack. Good padding around the laptop and accomodates widescreen 15.4" laptops. There is enough space/compartments for your PDA, cellular phone, sunglasses and books. Not to mention your MP3 player, plug, batteries and CDs. Even if you don't own a laptop, it makes a very good bookbag. Styling is very good Targus has taken over the market for accessories and is a very good company. There is a link to get additional free things also for...

Not perfect, but close I really like this bag - I bought it to use for college, which I have just recently started. It holds just about everything I could possibly need, my laptop, my graphics tablet, my books, et cetera.
This bag is not without its flaws, however. As previously stated in many other reviews, there is no place to hold a water bottle. Another flaw in its design is the fact that there are so many small pockets! These pockets can't hold more than a few things, so you spread your small items thr...

Not a good revision The older revision of this backpack was a definite 5 out of 5; this one, not so much. Differences include:
- The older version was bigger - the main book pouch was much larger (essential for any serious college student), and the side pouches were also larger (essential for carrying anything larger than an aspirin tablet in them).
- The Targus symbol on the front of the bag was a headphone jack pass-through, and was designed in such a way as to not let water in. The pass-through...
