Benefits of technology

[0011]This laptop computer bag has strategically placed compartments that include port holes for charging cords to attach to portable electronic devices. This feature allows the user to charge the batteries on multiple devices at the same time with minimal effort. The built in power strip and USB hub provide a charging station for multiple devices including, but not limited to a laptop computer, cell phone, translation device, and mp3 player, etc. The main advantage to the power strip and USB hub is the convenience for the user to leave all devices in the bag's compartments as they charge simultaneously. This provides the user with a place to store charging devices when they are not in use and a place to store devices while they charge. The cord organization straps are Velcro straps strategically placed throughout the interior of the bag and designed to organize is the cords for the multiple devices providing less clutter on the interior of the bag.

Problems solved by technology

This, however, can be quite inconvenient.

These carry cases, however, will usually require a complicated series of manipulations to expose the computer charging point from its contained position within the carry case,

A further difficulty associated with conventionally used and implemented portable computer carry cases involves the ease with which the carry cases are transported.

Specifically, as the number of electrical accessories which need to be charged increase, the carry case can become quite heavy to transport.

Further, the use of a portable computer will not usually eliminate the need for an individual to carry a briefcase or a number of files, further burdening their load and making the computer more difficult to transport.

These luggage carts, however, provide an additional article which must be stored or moved out of the way when using the computer, provide an additional carry-on item to be stowed in an aircraft, and can be quite unstable if the carry case is hastily and / or improperly secured thereto.

Such instability will not only make transport more difficult, but will also make the is carry case vulnerable to jolts and susceptible to falls from the tote which can potentially damage the computer itself and the carry case.
