一般筆電包的造型總是很普通也顯的笨重,但是Nerdbag能迅速成為你每天愛不釋手的筆電包。規格15的筆電包完全符合於15吋大的PowerBook;此外也有適用於16及17吋的規格。(規格15的筆電包實在很適合我的15吋Toshiba PC)那麼現在就來測量你的筆電大小,再到Ableton的網站上找尋你要的規格。
Ableton的商標很低調,而且都是獨立編號放在背帶上。Ableton限量包的主要特色是綠色內裏搭配黑色的外形。
Using a custom-crafted bag like the airbag is an entirely different experience
if you’re used to mass-produced bags. Everything on the airbag is beautifully made,
from perfectly-executed stitching to velcro attachments. That’s not just an aesthetic issue:
I put a lot of stress on my bags, like many mobile musicians, and most cheap bags simply fall apart.
My airbag shows virtually no signs of wear after months of hard use.
如果你一向都使用大量生產的包包,那麼專門訂製的包包絕對是新的體驗。筆電包上的所有東西是藉由完美的縫紉技術和魔鬼沾做黏合的,因此很精美。那絕對不是審美觀的問題:我對包包很講究,就像許多經常行動的音樂人一樣,而多數的便宜包包都很容易壞。實際上,我的筆電包並未在幾個月後的使用上出現問題。

Materials are fantastic, too: the strap is made of the same high-grade material as seatbelts, and the bag itself is made of luxurious recycled materials. Airbag uses fabrics from repurposed air mattresses, rubber dinghies, and other unlikely sources. The result is exceptional padding for your laptop, and a bag everyone you meet will want to stroke inside and out. (Whether that’s a good thing or not, I suppose, is up to you.)
素材也非常好:
背帶的素材和安全帶所用的高級素材是相同的,而包包本身則是用奢華的再生素材。Airbag所用的布料都來自改裝式的氣墊床,橡皮艇等一些不可能想得到的來源。對你的筆電有意想不到的收納效果,而每個人看見這只包包都會想拿進拿出。
(不論好與壞,我想這都取決於你自己。)
As a Manhattanite, I subscribe to the “one bag is never enough” philosophy, so I still have other bags for carrying additional gear. The Airbag itself is best for fitting just a laptop plus an accessory or two, like the power adapter, headphones, a paper notebook, and a Dell Axim PDA, in my case. I have other bags that work better for heavier loads.
As a light bag you won’t be embarrassed to wear out, though, the airbag is perfect.
身為一位曼哈頓人,我認為只有一個包包是不夠的,所以要有其他的包包去裝更多的東西。以我來說,Airbag不僅能裝一台筆電,還能放一,兩件相關配備,例如:變壓器,耳機,筆記本,和戴爾Axim PDA。我還有一些可以裝載重物的包包。你不會覺得背著一個輕型包包而感到不好意思吧!Airbag真的很不錯。
The bags are available for EUR 129 / US$149 (slightly more for 16″ / 17″); that may sound pricey, but in four years this bag will still be going while a lesser bag has fallen apart. It’s a great buy for a beautifully-crafted piece of luggage.
Ableton筆電包的價格是129歐元/149美元(規格16/17的價格稍微偏高);聽起來可能有點貴,但是4年後,當一個小包包已經壞損了,Ableton筆電包卻仍然可以使用。買到一個精製訂作的包包真的很值得!
