Great bag (just bought my second one
This is the best travel laptop backpack I’ve ever used. I have a lot but this is the best especially if you travel a lot.

9 Years of Hardcore Wear
I've had this backpack for nine years. It has been through college and grad school with me, traveled to several countries, and all over the US. It has served as my sole luggage for 9 day trips, and a simple personal item on airplanes. It has undergone so much abuse being overstuffed with textbooks and clothes, and through it all, it has been exactly what I needed. Love the various spacious compartments, the water bottle holder, and the laptop sleeve. After all this time, the backpack is ready to be retired, but I am so grateful for all it went through for me.

Different than what I expected.
My previous Targus bag looked amazing! Everything about it said professional and upscale. This bag? I have not used it yet. I tried it on and it does not fit right and seems a bit smaller than my previous nice bags. For now, I would likely not purchase it again and a part of me wish I could return it for something else. It is just supposed to be a functional/practical bag for regular work projects, but it does not look good so far.

the backpack is great in that it fist my 17.3" laptop and has lots of pockets for other items. My only complaint is that it doesn't stand up on its own. either empty or with the laptop in it, the silly things falls over.

Highly durable; Great for travel, school, and gaming equipment
I bought this with my Dell XPS 17 back in September 2011 and I've used it consistently for all four years of college for my heavy books, plus my XPS which has an extra battery (heavier than standard). I've also traveled a lot between Chicago to Portland, OR to Las Vegas to Honolulu numerous times and this backpack has carried my items to the point of back breaking without getting any outer tears. Even the bottom, though scuffed from heavy use, is in otherwise perfect condition. I have also carried the usual gaming peripherals (mouse, keyboard, external hard drive, headphones, etc) when needed (though I have since bought a separate bag for these). All the zippers are still intact, even zipping over my Razer Anansi (~20in wide) in the center pouch impressed me while travelling. Sadly, this did compromise the interior lining between the front and middle pocket and it has torn slightly, but only after 5 years of having this backpack. I am only recently looking for a new backpack because I've had this one for so long and will retire this one for hiking purposes. Living in Oregon with the rain, my items never got wet, though the outer material of the backpack would take a while to dry.
Pros; holds a lot, insanely durable, laptop divider is highly convenient, multiple lifestyle uses, seemingly water resistant
Cons; n/a. literally none.

Very nice but missing one thing
If I could I would rate this with 4.9 stars. This overall is a very nice backpack for my laptop. It has plenty of storage for all my stuff - mouse, pens, adapters, notepads, etc. It fits great over both or just one shoulder(old school way to carry with good padding and non-slip surface inside the shoulder strap. The padding around the laptop storage is adequate with one exception. I feel it does not have enough padding on the bottom side towards the bottom of the pack for when you set the pack down. This is where most of your day to day impact to the laptop will occur and I think it should have more padding in this area to protect the laptop. This is the only reason I did not give the 5th star but it is really close to excellent otherwise.

Worth the purchase
This backpack is wonderfully made. It’s has lots of compartments, very sturdy, and even has a cushioned back for comfort when carrying. I recommend this backpack for computers or whatever you might want to carry.

would have given it a 5 star rating ...
The sole reason for a 4 score is this bag has "NO" neon colors. Although boring in black its functionality is impeccable. Easy accessed through airport check, multiple compartments easily store all daily items for school/career. It looks good and is durable. Luv this bag, well priced, highly recommend.

Buy from amazon because you'll return.
I was overcharged $11 the second time I tried purchasing because of an unknown issue that they canceled my first order. The backpack was received, and it is not looking as advertised. The back of the backpack looks as if the bag has been used fresh out of the box for at least two years. The sewing does not look and stand straight at all. I went ahead and tried returning, and as they don't provide free returns, I'd be charged $47 if I wanted to return, so I'm stuck with this garbage thanks to Targus's fair return policy.

Great, durable backpack!
This is a great backpack. It replaces one that is identical that finally wore out after nearly ten years of use. I travel on average 100 days a year and when I do this backpack is my mobile office.

It has a dedicated compartment for my 17 in laptop. It keeps everything secure and easy to carry and also has plenty of space for chargers and misc items. It makes it easy to travel with all my tech plus I can put some clothes and other items inside.
Its a quality bag that fits everything easily.

Tested out a few bags and this came out on top
For our company, this bag made the cut from other various nylon laptop backpacks ranging from $50-$100 in value. Targeted for the daily commuter, Our IT team had a hands on sampling of various bags, and the function, size, and overall weight worked out to use for the time being.
