Actually, it might be kinda hard, the bag is pretty huge.

Depends how long your journey is too, if its under 20~ minutes, you should be fine, because it gets tiring with so much stuff afterwards!

Crumpler? That off-shore ****? Their proprietory fabric, Chickentex, is a cheaper than cheap knock-off of Cordura and frays so easily it's sad.

I had one of their "best" messenger bags and it lasted 6 months before the main strap fell off. I wouldn't trust hardware in Crumpler products.

Try REload bags, get a custom notebook bag made for your machine by the company that claims it (Crumpler is in vietnam, in factories that have been cited for human rights violations) at the same cost, out of Cordura & closed cell foam with waterproofing.

Or anyone else really, Crumpler got popular too fast, allowed their product to go to hell.

My favorite bags are www.booqbags.com I have both the folee XM (for 14-15.4" laptops and their backpack Python XM. The bags are extremely well made, well padded and comfortable to carry. I got a free Powersleeve XM when I ordered a while back and I use it all the time by itself. It fits my laptop and a few file folders for a quick client meeting.

I've just recieved my Sticky Date bag over the weekend. One downside is that the inside lining seems very synthetic and nylony, but maybe this will soften up with use. On the plus side it was meant to fit my widescreen 17in laptop and hopefully by uni books/notes. and i can say without a shadow of a doubt that this will fit in no problem. I feel like Mary Poppins its so big. I've fit my digital camera charger, 20 DVDs etc etc and its still got loads more room.
I'm 6ft and not scrawny and i think I could fit in with a bit of encouragement!
