Not seeing it. I have a compact Timbuk2 backpack and a larger OGIO, both in basic black. None of these provide a compelling reason to buy. They're loud, cluttery, and look overly bulky.
When I got my Mini 9 I picked up a Maxpedition Colossus Versipack, which has been so awesome that I loathe the thought of getting anything with larger than a 9. whatever-inch screen to replace it!
@Save me: I bought one over a year ago. Basically they have spoiled me, I don't think I will buy any other brand but Timbuk2. they are expensive online but you can find them on sale if you are patient enough, they are on sale right now, and a few weeks ago they had all green bags on sale for St. Pattys day.
@pdditty: Timbuk2's Commute bag. They just updated, but I have the previous version in black. It isn't the biggest back in the world, but for most purposes, I find it just the right size. Mine is black, and with the handle at the top, I can carry it around the office like a suitcase.

I'm more fond of tougher materials.
THESE however, seem pretty cool as well.
