Fjällräven Konten 17 liter backpack for 16 inch laptop computer.

Good:

Minimalist appearance.
Quickly and easily adjustable shoulder straps with detachable chest strap.
Soft, padded shoulder straps and back wall.
Semi-hard exterior, same shape empty or full.
When empty, stands upright for loading groceries that can't be tilted.
Hatch stays open without holding.
Carry handle on top. Always vertical.
Zippered pocket inside. (Should have more.)
Many pockets of various sizes inside. Three pen pockets high up in the safest corner.
Two stretchy pockets outside.
Retroreflector for traffic safety.

Bad:

Discontinued - no idea why.
Not raintight, but close.
Mediocre ventilation --> sweaty back.
Outside pockets not stretchy enough for a 0.5 liter bottle.
