It depends. I own an HP HDX-18t laptop which is an 18.4 inch, widescreen laptop and it fits perfectly (its 17.2 inches long). But I wouldn not go much longer than that...probably 17.3-17.4 inches max. I'm not sure if the Sony 18.4 inch one would fit...

Yeah, I got a random email saying someone replied to this. Did a slight double take. =) It certainly would have helped me before I bought it. I'm actually alternating between this bag and a 15" Swissgear Maxxum backpack I modified to fit my HP dv7 depending on how much I'm carrying. When I've got several heavy textbooks, a backpack is so much more comfortable than a messenger.

Thanks Felix for that really helpful postI have Toshiba Qosmio and fasing the same issue here, the main thing that graped me to this one because ToshibaDirect.com has the same model number but different dimensionshttp://www.toshibadirect.com/td/b2c/adet.to?poid=474654That what made me thin they are the same and it can fit 18.4 screen

One more thing. The fact that the HDX-18t fits perfectly in this bag, means that the new HP DV8t Quad laptops also fit perfectly in this case.

:-) That's really funny, I didn't even notice the date of the question... It was the first forum listed, which I guess made me assume it was still relevant. Ohh well, hopefully it will help someone else who has the same question.

Yes, it will fit. I would say the manufacturer's interior dimensions are conservative. It will definitely accept a laptop 18" long and 2" thick. The interior vertical space available is slightly more than 13", so it may be snug but it should fit. The case is soft-sided so it will stretch slightly if that is necessary to accommodate a large laptop.

17 inch is huge for a 13 inch laptop in my opinion. The 14 inch bag is able to store my 14 inch laptop, cables, accessories and such in a compact manner. Its not a slim bag but definitely sufficient. I guess if you dont mind the size, then getting a larger bag would be a safe bet.

No I cannot fit a laptop in this bag. It is significantly smaller than it looks, and it won't even fit on me as a backpack

Well, the one that was sent to me stated it would hold a 17" laptop but would ONLY fit a 15" and NOT a 17". I don't know where other people are coming up with the briefcase fitting the 17" and/or larger laptop other than either, 1: There ARE different sizes of the briefcase or 2: They ARE NOT putting their laptops in the sleeves that is indicated on the description of the briefcase because my 17" laptop had no problem being put IN the briefcase BUT putting it in the slot that's indicated by the description and WHERE IT'S SUPPOSED TO GO wasn't happening and ONLY would fit up to a 15".

That is correct. My laptop is 17.3 inches, but thought it would fit - not so. Fits in the case, but not in the designed area within the case.

I measured the inside and it is 16" wide, there are other models, which hold larger laptops, including the Chicago, the Damon (listed as 18" wide), clinton, franklin(up to 17" wide laptop)I use a 13" mac so not an issue, if you get a 15" it will fit any bag I expect. There are many comments below each bag with some saying they can fit 17.3" bags, but some don't have the rollers. could always contact Mclein direct to make sure of size prior to purchase - hope it helps - regards

Another question for the "better informed." Has anyone gotten a laptop bag that fits? I need one that also will haul the mouse and ac adapter. I think the 12" are for the 11.6 netbooks. Any suggestions?

Yes it can fit a 17" laptop. Thats what I have and it fits perfectly and works great!!

This bag is pretty big. I was surpirsed to see its size when it arrived. I think it can even fit bigger laptop than 15 or 16 inches. Its a huge bag.

I got to thinking about your laptop fitting this bag , when I said yes before I was thinking of my other bag this bag inside compartment is about 12 inches, outside is 18.

YES! My laptop measures 15"X 10" X 1.5" and it fits perfectly with some extra room on the width! So, you'll have plenty of room. I LOVE this bag and I get compliments on it all the time. My only complaint is that once you get the laptop in, and power cord, you will have very limited space for other items, files, etc. You just have to be particular about what you carry along with the laptop. Good luck! Hope this helps!

I have a 17.3" laptop which is barely too wide for the interior padded laptop pocket. It fits with plenty of room on either of the two exterior zipped pockets. There's plenty of room inside for cords, some clothes, etc. It takes up half of an overhead bin, instead of the more usual third. I think it would fit your laptops.

Yes, a 17 inch laptop will fit in it easily. I lined my bag with 1 inch foam rubber from the local Michael's store for extra protection and it holds my 15" Lenovo or my daughter's 17" HP laptop easily. The computer bag is very good sized and works really well. It also comes with a shoulder strap for carrying and attaches to the panniers quickly with 4 quick clips. As a bonus, there is a zipper on the bottom that when opened, lets you take out the hidden shoulder straps to make it into a backpack for trips that you don't need the panniers or for walking around town/campus.

The physical, outside lengths of 15.6 laptops differ depending on manufacturer, if the screen a 16:9 "letterbox" or not, if the screen is HD/1080p or not, etc. I have an HP DV6T laptop that has a 15.6 1080p screen. It has a wider, letter box shape like many new laptops come with now a days. I bought this bag, but my laptop was too tall for the computer compartment. See the pics I posted in the customer pictures area. With my laptop closed, using a tape measure edge to edge it's a tiny bit under 15 inches. When put inside the Swissgear, my laptop upper corners came right up against the inside zipper edges. Also my laptop was a bit too tall for the way they constructed the velcro elastic closure latch (it couldn't properly stretch over and around my laptop). In my opinion, if your closed laptop outer dimensions is no more than 13 or 14 inches, then the laptop compartment on this bag should be okay. But at 15 inches (like mine), then it's no good. I wound up returning mine. As fyi, just as a comparison my company bought me the Swissgear "Legacy" computer backpack which is also marketed for 15.6 screen computers. I've been using it for a couple of years for my job Lenovo laptop. My home laptop (which is the HP dv6t) fits perfectly in the Legacy computer compartment, just making it to the tippy top and not rubbing up against the zipper edges. The compartment padded wall on the Legacy is far higher and deeper than the one you're considering. But the Legacy bag is also about double the price

I'd recommend getting either a 14-15 inch case because I have my 13 inch Lenovo laptop and it barely fits. The zipper is pretty hard to close...wish I had gotten a bigger case but all in all the case is very sturdy. Hope this helps.
