Yes, it is tempting. As I was boarding a flight at LAX to Hawaii, I was told my carry on for my computer, camera and some lenses was not a computer bag. Fine, but I was not carrying a purse and the bag could fit under the seat or very easily in the overhead. I am fond of this bag, inside a net area for chargers and cables and it has outside zipper areas for id, tickets, book and a random candy bar and it is red. Do I have to give it up? I gave up my computer bag because it was heavy, I left it in Europe mid trip.
