    Hi, I realize this is probably going to be YA Boring Case T, but I was wondering if there's any good resource to find out what bags will/will not fit a T61p with a 9cell battery. I'd also like to find sleeves that would fit that thinkpad.

    Any help/recommendations would be appreciated. I'm looking for a backpack that can also hold a few textbooks.

    Edit: Dimensions are 14.1x11x1.4 inches

    Ebags has notebook sleeve dimensions, so just measure your notebook with the battery and compare it to what bag you want.

    I think I'll go with either the SwissGear Maxxum or the Synergy, but what are the differences between these two bags? The Synergy costs like 20$ more... why?

    I landed on these bags because I'm a student and need to carry tons of stuff.
