I'm a college student studying computer science in Los Angeles (GO Trojans!). I have an IBM Thinkpad X40 on the way, so I'll be ordering a Brain Cell Size 5 very soon. My current conflict in choice is between the ID and the Empire. Along with the Brain Cell, a 3/2-inch textbook will be carried, as well as a few loose-leaf notebooks. I'm looking for the lightest, most portable solution. Will the ID accommadate my intended inventory, or will I have to look towards the Empire?
Welcome!

A quick test with a 1,5 '' textbook (Shriver and Atkins, Inorganic Chemistry) as well as a few roleplaying books (MM1 and PHB) all fit in the main compartment together with my Brain Cell 5 with an X40 inside it... The organisational pocket is then pretty small but you can still fit a few knicknacks in there then. I've loosened the braincell from it clips though then as it easier to fit stuff around it with it loose.

OK I've been answering you on both boards
Yes I was talking about the ID. My own ID as a matter of fact
Personally I've never used a shoulder bag before so compared to my gf that easily carries 15 lbs in her purse/messenger bag I would get a backpack if I was going to carry a heavy textbook ++ in my messenger bag. But that is not an issue with the bag but my shoulders

Just to show how much stuff you can actually get into the ID bag I've done some VERY quick and basic photos. And calling me a skilled photographer would be pretty hard to do with a straight face
Anyway the pictures are about 1.5MB each, and can be found here:
5 pictures in total just exchange the last digit in the url from 2 through 6.
