The Bottom Line	Solo's new Urban Vertical Messenger laptop case manages to get just about everything right, with excellent pockets and solid construction.	The Vaja Messenger Slim, specifically made for 13- and 15-inch MacBooks, is a beautifully constructed laptop bag, but leaves little room for accessories.	While it may look like a normal nylon laptop case, the Pacsafe MetroSafe 300 packs in a ton of security features, but it falls a bit short as an actual laptop conveyance.	The Kensington Contour Cargo Messenger laptop case is one of the most comfortable, and useful, laptop messenger bags we've used, though it's not exactly sophisticated-looking.	Only the fantastic retractable Smart Strap stands out on this otherwise conventional laptop case--but that one great feature is more than enough.
