Does anyone have a good source for cool laptop bags? I don't mind spending a little, but I want something cool, not a briefcase. Online would be great, but I live in New York so anywhere around here would be fine too. Thanks!

timbuk2 do actual laptop bags now. you can 'build your own' on their website.
i have one from loop nyc which isn't too bad. their website's not the best though:
then catalog - parcel - bags.

if you got cash to spend order direct from a japanese importer.
In my opinion japanese bags are the best.
The best place to find em is on ebay.
If I had some extra money I would buy this one for my vaio:

cost me a pretty penny but the backpack I bought from BKLYN START is great.
my laptop fits nice and snug, and its got some nice features - including a built in hood.

100% serious thought : whatever zippy dippy laptop bag you buy, consider stuffing it into a non-flashy backpack between the time that you walk out your front door and the moment that you arrive at a client site (if you're a contractor) or get to the office (if you take it to work).
Toting a laptop around in a laptop bag increases your risk of mugging or snatch-and-run theft by about 10,000 %.
There's something about a bag that's used exclusively to hold expensive electronic equipment that just screams "STEAL ME!" to the criminal masterminds out there.
Go figure!

Thanks for all the good suggestions. One thing though, I have a titanium powerbook and size is little bit of an issue, it's about an inch bigger than most standard bags. Any ti-book users with bag ideas. Macs are so beautiful but the bags they sell at the apple store are the worst kind of ugly.

The formentioned timbuk2 company makes a custom one for the TiBooks. It fits well and has custom fabric and colors.
