    So a heavier, cheaper, NON-waterproof version of 1000D Cordura, but sold at a premium for bearing a brand name, then...?

    Isn't this like walking around with a large flashing sign overhead saying "MUG ME"?

    I'm surprised it doesn't have flashing LED's and a window to show off the contents. Great way to advertise to thieves that you're carrying valuable equipment around. Surely something more discrete is preferable?

    do people still do this ? with skype dual screen and a headset do you really have to nip round your mates and play on a 17inch screen ?
    and buy a bag that should be waterproof as is instead of sticking it in another bag ?

    strange world ...
    What does it matter now if men believe or no?
    What is to come will come. And soon you too will stand aside,
    To murmur in pity that my words were true
    (Cassandra, in Agamemnon by Aeschylus)

    To see the wizard one must look behind the curtain ....

    I like all these "Great way to let muggers/thiefs you have expensive stuff" lol. Your common would be thief/mugger/thug would not likely know what the ROG eye symbol means and even less think that guy has a $200 RGB Keyboard and a $1500-$3500 Gaming laptop in that Asus ROG Lan Party Backpack.
