    would a 15.4" laptop sleeve fit a 15.6" hp pavilion laptop? Since hp's are more rectangular than the other brands of laptops I'm wondering if it'll fit?

    thanks in advance!

    well I haven't found any 15.6 sleeves, but I wouldn't be so concerned if it weren't for the fact that the hp pavilion isn't the normal square shaped laptop, I was wondering just how big the sleeve would have to be to fit the rectangular hp? the dimensions are 38cm x 25cm x 3.5cm (L x W X D)

    None of the sleeves I've looked at have dimensions written on them, is the only way to bring a ruler??

    you have to bring the lappy with you when you buy the sleeves....
    coz, most sleeves should stretch... or get 1 size smaller to effectively make use of the sleeve.....

    depends on the material and the construction of the sleeve.

    neoprenes such as the incase ones are very flexible and stretches to fit...
    the only issue you may have is the fact taht the zipper's 90deg bend position is fixed by the construction of the sleeve.

    you should take your lappy to the computer store and try a fitting.
