But the 17-inch laptop is just really into it with great difficulty and then the corners are straight out the zipper, we find not so good.

So my opinion: 17 inches No, for smaller laptops perhaps saved again in a case sure quite well. Oh, my friend said also that the zipper a little hooked ... but I have not even tried ...
