Price Paid:  $99.00 from ebay

Summary:
Just got my CompuTrekker and I'm in love with it already. I've got my D70 with the 18-70mm and a 75-300mm in there, along with my p&s, my filters, lens hoods, and other stuff, and I still have tons of room left. I can't wait to fill it up! BTW, my Sony Vaio GR300 (15 inch screen) fits in the laptop compartment, but just barely, because of the height of the laptop standing on its side. If you have a laptop with a monitor bigger than 15 inches, it probably won't fit. Thickness-wise, the laptop compartment is accomodating enough.

Strengths:
Great quality, tons of room, all weather cover, laptop compartment

Weaknesses:
Laptop compartment won't handle bigger screened computers...

Price Paid:  $120.00 from Canoga Camera

Summary:
Nice to carry on my camera gear AND my laptop all in one bag. Laptop can be removed once you've arrived at your destination and the pack can be used for hiking. Lowe makes many nice bags and this model works for those that need to carry camera equipment and a laptop all in one bag.

Strengths:
Good capacity. Designed as a backpack with nice straps. Easier on the back and shoulders than the Stealth Reporter or Omni Trekker. Tripod carrier is a nice feature.

Weaknesses:
It's a thick pack, but I guess you need that depth to fit everything.

Similar Products Used:
I also have a Lowepro Nova AW2 and a Omni Traveler.

Price Paid:  $129.00 from Ebay

Summary:
Basically a Mini Trekker with a pocket for a notebook PC. Carrys a decent load, distributes that load pretty well via thickly padded shoulder straps, and looks good doing it. The AW cover keeps everything dry and it has a fold out tripod holder.

Strengths:
Comfortable, distributes load well, AW Cover, well padded, looks good without screaming CAMERA.

Weaknesses:
Front pocket has a huge overhang to keep moisture out, makes zippers difficult to use. The laptop pocket is designed for "pro" type machines, my Toshiba fits pretty tight. The "beaver tail" tripod holder is right in the center and forces you to remove the tripod for access to the bag.
