Picture of my bag...

[Rhoda Collins]

This has SO much room! Even more than I could get it to look in the pics, lol. My machine area has a TON more room in it than it looks. Nothing is touching my keys either.

[Rhoda Collins]

Whooo hoo! Congrats and SO glad you like it! I love mine!

Rho!! My bag came today! I have only been able to open it and look and put it aside because I have six tripts I'm trying to get out today, but LOVE IT! It will take a lot of exhibits to have too many for that baby. And I've never had as many as that. :D

Shannon,

This is where I bought it. It gives the dimensions. It is a total of 8" thick. I would say it would fit both comfortably tho. I have a LOT of space w/just my machine in the laptop pouch. :)

Rhoda, is that bag big enough for both a 14" laptop and the lightspeed writer, which is 12" and an inch thick, plus cords and misc?

[Rhoda Collins]

Oh, I just LOVE the lunch bag lined pocket!!! Is 'inside' the main pocket area, so you can even put 'other' things in that area, w/out mixing into the lined pocket. And there are little pockets on the sides to slip a drink in! That was handy yesterday, as I did not finish my Pepsi, lol. I won't trust my Latte in it tho. ;)

[Rhoda Collins]

That's cool! Glad I could help! Yes, that is how wide the sleeve/strap opening is to slip over the handle. My handle is WAY too wide to fit in it, lol. I have a big/clunky Walmart luggage cart, but big/strong wheels to go in muck and snow. I wanted those wheels! They are starting to buck, so will probably get a new cart in the fall....

Enjoy! I love the bag!

Do you mean the 8.25" is how wide the sleeve opening is? The sleeve on my case is bigger than that -- more like 11" wide -- but the roller bag handle is nowhere near 8" wide. This looks like a winner! I'm thinking I probably don't *need* it, but there are times my bag is rather cramped, and I do worry about my LS when it's full like that. SUCH a good price! I snagged your 10%-off code. Makes it half the price of the red one I have, which was also on sale!

[Rhoda Collins]

Mine does also, as I like to have my butt pad on jobs I have never been to the location, lol. You never know when all there are are wooden or folding metal chairs!! Plus, in the winter, I need my shoes! Hate sitting in my boots for hours!

Does anyone JUST carry their machine?? I would be impressed, LOL!

I just measured the strap for you, it is 8 1/4 inches long...not sure how 'wide' you need that opening to go over your handle. To me it looked shorter than on my computer bag, but I use a bunge cord to strap it to my cart. ;)

[Brenda Rogers]

Looks great! The thing to go over the roller bag is the main reason I bought the one I have. I'll never have another computer bag without one!

With all the space in yours, I could probably carry everything in it except the labelmaker -- if I started lifting weights, that is! Even with my little LightSpeed, my bags get heavy. I'm such a wimp. :P

Brenda,
It has that slip handle on the back to go over the roller bag. The front pocket is narrow and open/not zippered....the half moon 'seam' you kind of see above the black piping?? That is the slip pocket...slip something in it, lol.

The straps felt nice when I slung it on my shoulder. They are just the right length to shoulder wear or hand carry by the straps. There are only the two straps. I can even place my palm of my hand of the arm it is slung on underneath it to 'support' it a little better, if needed....if I am running to the job, lol.
