Vyper from booqbags.com for 14' T42

[AnneD]

Dear Thinkpad owners

I just got a T42 and after reading the inputs on the forum I decided that I would like to get a Vyper sleeve from booqbags.com for it. Does anyone know which of the Vyper models fits a 14' T42 with a 6 cell battery?

Thanks in advance!

I got the 14" Powersleeve for my T42 w' 6-cell and was a bit disappointed seeing it in person. For example the little Booq insignia was actually some cheap plastic thingy pinned through the material & rusted out inside! I broke the thing off and have two pin holes instead. I also didn't like the orange tabs on it & cut these off. Well, it serves the purpose of something to hold the laptop but little else (like power cord, mouse -- these I had to pack with my luggage). About the only other thing you can carry inside is some thin pamphlet. Granted it's light & served the purpose of keeping my laptop on my person while traveling with minimal additional weight. If you want something to carry more regularly with additional gear then you might want something else than what I got.

I've got a Vyper for my 14" T42 and it fits perfectly. Only a couple millimeters of space side to side.

No help on the Vyper, but in regards to the Powersleeve.

My powerbrick fits just fine in the front pocket. The only thing it won't hold is my mouse.

And, after over a year of use, my little booq insignia, (which appears to be annodized aluminum, and not plastic) is still holding up just fine.
