I have (among other bags) the Tenba computer bag (415, I think).  I
lives on my shoulder.  On trips, it carries the Mac Powerbook, a novel,
day planner and a bunch of camera gear for going through airport.  The
sides unzip for lots of room.  Or zip closed and it is a nicely made,
non camera bag looking unit that has photo inserts available.  Under
$100.

Unzipped, I've even carried two Pentax 67 bodies and three lenses plus
the computer and book.  Of course with the LowePro Commercial on other
shoulder my knees tend to buckle a bit, but the airline guerrillas can't
touch them.
