Hi

have you seen the movie "The first $20 million is always the hardest"?

if not, pleaaaase read the book first! (autor: Po Bronson)
it's such a good book and such a baaaad movie, i could cry.

anyway, in the movie, one of these geeks uses a laptop carrying bag with straps, so it hangs kind of like a bagpack, but at this front side. to use the laptop, he doesn't need to take it off - just fold open the bag - and the laptop kindda hangs from his neck or shoulders, perpendicular to his chest.

anyone has seen those in real life? i'd love to have one of these!!!



Btw: i saw a thread from somebody into genetics... i'm a biologist, studying a Ms.C. in Biotechnology - ready for anything about "geeknetics"  :lol:

Agreed.  Great book lousy movie.  Haven't seen any of those backpack thingies though.  I'm currently taking classes in Biotechnology Management in order to make an industry shift.
