Has anyone seen or ordered one of the MacPacks from the company of the
same name in Kent, Washington?  They advertize several carrying bags
at a signifigantly lower price than Apple's bag. (See May ST MAC
p. 38).  How does the quality of these bags compare to the Apple
bag?  Does the firm really ship immediatly as stated in their ads?
Does anyone know of any other sources for Mac carrying bags?

I just purchased the MacFreighter case from the folks at Mac Packs.  I was
able to get it delivered immediately.  It is rather a nice case, but...
It holds the keyboard and disk only - no room for the modem as advertised.
Not a lot of room for cables and software either.  I haven't seen the other
case, but it appears to have even less room than the MacFreighter and costs
a bit more.  I'd still buy the MacFreighter if I had it to do over again...
