What’s in my laptop bag?

Posted by Matthew Osborn on April 26, 2010

UPDATE: I figured it was time do the obligatory “what’s in my laptop bag” post. If you have been following my twitter stream you might have seen that I just purchased a new MacBook Pro and I figured it was time to get a new laptop bag as well. Previously I had the a Microsoft Ogio bag, basically the same as the Ogio Hip Hop. After some strong recommendations from my friends I decided on a Tom Bihn bag for the new one. For those not familiar with Tom Bihn they are awesome bags with awesome attention to detail. I ended up choosing the black Super Ego bag with the appropriate gray Brain Cell insert. So to make a short story long, having to switch everything over to the new bag I figured it would be the perfect time to do this post.
