    Out of the three, the first one is good quality, Targus is a well known brand for notebook sleeves, cases, and bags.

    According to Targus's site, that's the only version they have in that model. ;)

    Notice how the picture is squeezed too, but if you click on the spec sheet, you can see the normal picture. I'm pretty sure argos.ie just used this same picture instead of exporting the normal picture from the PDF file.

    On the US site, it's even written "fits laptops with 15.4" widescreens".

    EDIT: By the way, you can check the measurements: 37.5 x 2 x 32 cm

    True.
    It should fit with the 9-cell in too shouldn't it?

    I think I'm gonna get it next time I go near an Argos, which should be this week sometime...
