    Don't forget the 17" we're talking about is the diagonal of the screen.

    We did check the size of my son's laptop (an Acer Aspire 7720) which on paper would fit just but we'll see when the bag arrives.
    If not, I might have it for mine - though I was thinking about one of those trendy pink leather ones rather than a backpack!

    Just an update on the Stm convertible:
    it fits perfectly and my son is delighted. It is very well made, with loads of pockets and space to carry all the paraphenalia that goes with a laptop plus more. And the option to convert from a backpack to a shoulder bag could be useful too.
    It isn't the cheapest bag but is certainly a good choice. It arrived quickly from Amazon too.
