This is the perfect laptop bag. I got it as a replacement after my work issued laptop bag kept ripping at the seams. My work laptop is a 17" monster that weighs 15 lbs and this was the only bag that could fit it, thought not it laptop sleeve. The padded sleeve fits my 13" macbook with plenty of extra room, and I'd think it'd fit a 15" perfectly.
I really like the zipper acces to the laptop sleeve. It has a couple pockets, but they're all appropiately size and it does a good job of keeping the main compartment as a big and usable as possible. The zippers are all bomb proof and I've been beating this bag up daily for over a year now with no signs of wear. It comes with a detachable cell phone pocket that is pretty worthless, but I wasn't expecting any use out of that anyway.

I forgot to mention how great of a carry-on bag this is. It's big enough that I've even done weekends out of it and left the roller carry-on at home, or it makes a great second carry-on in addition to the roller bag. You can even buckle the waist straps around the a roller bag's extendable handle and carry it on top of the luggage like the fancy buisness travelors do with their briefcases. I'll also frequently use this for my camera bag. It'll fit a DSLR, a flash, a couple lenses and an Ipad plus extra some room for snacks or a light jacket. It's great for a day at the zoo or park without have a "Lowepro" bag that screams "I have expensive camerea equipment on me". Sometimes it's nice to have a high end bag that isn't typically recognized as high end. I paid the full $100 and felt it was totally worth it.
