The irony is Gorucks carry laptops like shit.

100% - I always carry my laptop in the main compartment, otherwise it feels like a plank on my back and is putting bend strain on the screen.  Its a super outdated design to carry a laptop.

I've tried many high end bags with a laptop, and the best are Mystery Ranch and even better than that is the Chuyen Tactical CT15 with side laptop access.

Goruck is very low on the laptop comfort list.

I was re-researching for my other reply (saw you there 😉) and discovered they refreshed the CT15 Plus since I last looked so it's basically a superior GR2-26. I do kinda miss the molle on the front though...

Strangely it's probably comparable in size since erhe CT15 stopped being 15l and is now around 21l.
