A-ha! The author tricked you too, it's actually his laptop bag! /j

Someone submitted it, and others upvoted it to the front page. You may be new, so that's how things work around here in a nutshell. Bienvenidos!

If true, that's a bad reason for this to be upvoted. My guess is that it got upvoted because people were surprised that these movie prop bags exist.

I didn't upvote because I think it's not a good laptop bag, but I'm sticking around for the comments for the discussion. Sometimes I'll upvote a post just because the discussion is good, but not in this case.

I'm upvoting some of the comments though, and I'm guessing the algorithm takes that into account when determining it's position on the frontpage :-/

The real story is that you need to conceal an electronics gadget as groceries in order to not have it stolen in SF

Exactly, now I want such prop bag and not for laptop.

i liked it. i make my own laptop sleeves and bags, and it gave me an idea for a thinner padded version of a prop bag that would work better for a laptop.

I upvoted because even though I prefer backpacks, it gave me the idea to try to create a movie prop bag. And also because there are few "hacker" submissions nowadays, and I consider this one of them.
