...but I was looking around the local CARE shop, which basically sells donated 2nd-hand stuff. As I peeped through the handbag racks I find a laptop bag! oooee! my 540c didn't have anything to be carried around in, and now she does :). and for all of $2.50 ($1.35US... ish :)dana Quadra 605 Obsessions

Nice! My ill-fated 180c came with a laptop bag. I remember when i got it, how Mum didn't want me getting it at first, but then when i came home on the train i was carrying a laptop case, which raised the PAF dramatically. God knows what the heck all the fuss about the bag was, but oh well, at least my preciouis 145B now has a skin of its own! -------------------------- Give your dreams a chance.™ - Apple in the mid '90s Warrior maclover5 68k Macintosh Liberation Army Number of 68ks Liberated: 6

I got a cool shoulder bag from Ikea for $10, that would make a good laptop bag...if I had a laptop. <weeps>At present I use it to house my sketchbook, watercolors, pencils, and journals. 666th poster and 666th thread-creator Mod of the Mac II series Forums Total 68K Macs liberated: 7 My Site: http://cine.sytes.net My Hotline Server: 840av.sytes.net

My PowerBook 100 came in a "PowerCase", pretty good condition... I still use the big bag my Compaq Contura 3/25 came in... not that it's a HUGE laptop, but it's a nice big bag, i use it for my school stuff :) I'm the only one in school who gets asked daily if he has a laptop.we have one of those Ikea messenger bags too... they make good playstation2 carrying bags, 4 games, all cables, the PS2 and you just pop the controller into your pocket the contura... it's turned into more of a console... but then i started ripping the guts out more and it's keyboard is mostly shot.. and when it does work it is funny to type on even for a laptop keyboard, so i use a serial mouse and a ps2 keyboard, then i could lput it all in a little box and call it the EverBox... ooOOoo...

I have one of those! I've also carried a custom built SlimLine 386SX25, then my MacIIx/Rocket33, later my DuoDock/230/PowerCD/Logitech ScanMan and then after that my Quadra 630 and most recently my 2300c with the Dock setup in a matching ImageWriter LQ Carrying Case that I used originally for my ImageWriter Wide Carriage/ThunderScan when the SE/Radius16 in my Compact Mac Carry Bag was my main machine! jt ™.

I still have the compact-Mac bag I used to carry my SE to and from 'vacations' to visit relatives. Didn't have a laptop. Come to think of it, still don't have a laptop. Maybe it's time./Mr Lynn Curator of: SE (6.0.4), SE w. 020 accelerator (6.0.8), SE w. no HD, IIfx (7.1), IIci (bad HD); plus various PPCs in family (blue G3/350 is main Mac these days). |

Oooooh Yeaaaaaah! I've got the BIG@$$ImageBanger! It fed thru the same 15" sprocketed paper as the 15" Gerber vinyl cutting plotters used, which was very handy for running ThunderScan, with which the later LQ print head/ribbon cartridge carrier wasn't compatible. jt ™.
