Should I get Lizzie a Laptop Backpack?

Lizzie, much like any woman, is difficult to buy a gift that she will really adore. She has been saying she wants a new laptop bag, and I thought this meant a laptop backpack, since they seem so practical for traveling.

But she just IM'd me four bags from Luggageonline that she has in mind. Not one of them is a computer backpack, and Luggageonline has a slew of laptop backpacks for her to choose.

Below are all of the bags she has picked out, which as you can tell, are all designer briefcases.

Kenneth Cole Laptop Briefcase

McKlein Ladies Breifcase

Kenneth Cole Ladies Briefcase Collection Leather Flapover Computer Tote

Lodis Audrey Collection Large Tote Brief

So those are the bags she has picked out. Which one should I get her? I have no clue. I myself am still partial to the laptop backpacks like these:

Piel Leather Goods Slim Computer Backpack

McKlein Leather Backpack Briefcase

After looking at her selection and my selection, I realize the bags I selected were a bit too practical and masculine. So I guess I better chose a computer briefcase as opposed to a computer backpack.

Which Would You Choose?

Pictures like this one make me want to visit Ireland. Lizzie has wanted to visit Ireland for some time, since one of her life long friends has deep roots in Ireland. She also says that everyone she has talked to that has either lived their or visited have raved how beautiful it is.

Because of places like Ireland, Lizzie and I will be obtaining our passports this year. It will now be a written goal to be obtained in the first part of 2008. We actually printed the forms in 2007, but have not gotten them. 2008 will be the year for us to get our passports.

Have you been to Ireland?

Anyway, we both would like to visit Ireland. If you have been there, what places do you think we should visit?
