I've used a Targus backpack for several years now and have
been very happy with it. It's my IT "survival"
pack. I can carry my laptop, accessories, CDs, extra network
cables, various adapters, a few books, etc. and be prepared
wherever I go. I've been through countless airports (even
international) and the bag has yet to see any significant wear. The
only thing I didn't like was the padding along the bottom was a bit thin
and I felt that if I placed the pack down too hard, the laptop would take
a big jolt. But, I simply cut some foam and placed it in the bottom
and haven't had a problem.
I think Targus has very well made laptop backpacks and recommend
them.
Unfortunately, they don't make my style anymore. The closest they
have is this one:

Where this one has 3 main compartments + 1 small, mine has 2 main + 1
small. Otherwise they're very similar.
Hope this helps.

What are people using for laptop
backpacks these days and liking? I’ve been thru several generic
bags, and most recently an Icon I picked up at Micro Center, none of
which I’ve been happy with due to durability or storage issues.
Mine is a generic no name obtained second hand from Intel. Wish I
could tell you what it was as it has been very good for me. Main
pouch for the laptop. Secondary pouch held two notebooks and at
least 2 text books. Two tertiary pouches (each have the height of
the main pouches) for the laptop PS in one, calculator, pens, PDA, etc...
in the other. Mouse in a side pouch (also for a drink) and then spare
stuff in the pocket on the flipdown cover that goes over the two tertiary
pouches.
