"Excellent design" - Review of Black Diamond Magnum Backpack - 976cu in

I recently bought this backpack to use for traveling and hiking. It is a body-hugging minimalist design. The rip-stop nylon, hardware and construction is very durable and light weight. Smooth-working nylon coil zippers with clever integrated pulls. Well shaped and positioned straps shoulder, chest and waist straps. A very useful detail is the good-sized zippered pocket inside the main compartment that keeps small items from rolling around (not mentioned in the original description). It fits my 12" powerbook in a padded sleeve perfectly with plenty of room to spare. Two stretch mesh pockets expand a lot and hold water bottles firmly. I bought the pack in black for its inconspicuous look and am very satisfied in all respects.
