On my way out the door for the first time with this bag, my $800 Gateway went crashing to the ground, doing some minor damage to it (one of the battery locks popped out and I cannot get it back in). How did this happen? Did I somehow clip the shoulder strap incorrectly? After picking up my case and laptop off the ground I quickly discovered that the lousy Made-in-China, pot metal clip failed right at the pivot point. I did nothing out of the ordinary that would constitute extreme or otherwise abusive behavior. I simply slung it over my shoulder and down it went. Whatever weight rating this was designed for is obviously not suitable for the weight of a 15" laptop and its charging pack. Stay away unless you are comfortable toting it around by the carrying handle only.
