I love this backpack so much that I've purchased it three times (for myself, a friend and a cousin). My Inspiron 710m fits in the computer pocket with room to spare even in its gym pac cover. A friend's IBM x41 fits perfectly under the same conditions. Love the water holders (once you have them you can't go back). Love the design. However, I don't think it's a big guy's backpack. It appears small and petite on my brother's back. He's is 5'11'' and 220 lbs. The North Face Firewall meets his needs and size better.
