Targus Trek Backpack for 16-inch laptops for $13

If you are looking for a backpack for your 16-inch laptop, the Targus Trek, model TSB193US, is currently on sale for $13 at Amazon.com. You can buy as many as you like. It averages 3.8 out of 5 based on 50 customer reviews, so obviously don’t expect features and function of one that costs five times as much. There are four different pictures of it to help you get a better feel for it.

PS: not all 16-inch laptops are the same in terms of size. The actual screen may be so, but there are other aspects of their design that affect how well they fit in different bags, so there’s always a YMMV factor until you actually try it with our very own laptop.
