Perhaps that's not true, but that was an issue. But more, I was turned off by the myriad of extra options for fee that they offer. Don't offer me a bag and then 15 different things I can buy to make it actually work. Just make a bag that works. Horizontal laptop sleeves, vertical laptop sleeves? Why do I need any laptop sleeve, the bag should handle that all on its own. A separate bag for cables? The other bags I'm looking at have that built in.

The other thing I didn't like about the website for the Brain Bag was there are absolutely no views of what the bag actually does. Just shows the outside of it, then a 360 degree view of it, but no pictures of it opened up. I guess I'm just supposed to trust in its awesomeness, sight unseen.

The bag I pick should make my life simpler, not complicate it. Just didn't get a good vibe looking at the brain bag. Looks like it's very well made, but I've got enough on my plate just researching bags. If I have to research options to make the bag work, I'm out.
