deided on a 17 inch over a 15. what bag/backpacks would you guys recommend? i know there are many threads like this, but i'm looking for different kind of stuff, not just the standard bags (though i'd be interested in seeing those too)

how about sleeves?

For something different (and custom made) check out www.timbuk2.com

I got a Medium sized messenger bag from them for my 12" PB (it's a bit big for it, but I wanted extra space for random things). Custom colors & designs make them quite unique...quality is excellent, I'd highly recommend their stuff

dude, do the search... I just did the search (I'm looking for my ideal bag for a 12") and read tons of suggestions on 17" bags... there have been tons of "different" suggestions made... including manufacturers who will do custom colors and custom graphics and such... no matter how nicely you ask, you're not going to get everyone to come to your thread and repeat themselves... do the search... its easy... and you'll get 2 dozen or more interesting bags to look at... plus tons of great discussion on the pros and cons of each...

Just do it! (tm)
