Hi jboy.
I just spoke to John in Product Development to confirm sizing. The sizing on the Commute has been updated in the past year to accommodate new Macbook sizing. If you are purchasing the medium Commute from timbuk2.com the 15" Macbook Pro will fit fine.
If you are purchasing a medium Commute from a different retailer avoid any that have a yellow swirl- these are based on 2005 Mac sizes and will not fit the current 15" Macbook Pro.

Thanks for your patience.
Happy holidays.

Okay- now you've got me nervous.
I haven't heard of the fit issue your referring to and while my "timbuk2" news aggregate doesn't troll _all_ the blogs it gets to the big ones.
How about this: I'll grab a Commute medium out of stock tomorrow and toss my 15' Macbook pro into it to make double sure that the sizing is not an issue.

cool?

Thanks Patti, I am just wondering because I see several comments on review sites about how a Mac Book Pro does NOT fit....there must be an older size floating around out there that is 3/4 of an inch smaller? Is there an older model..I notice the swirl in a yellow color on some bags?

The medium Commute (http://www.timbuk2.com/tb2/products/l...) is made to fit a 15" macbook pro.
It'll fit.
Promise.

Will a Commute bag really hold a MacBook Pro?

I see your corporate site says you can fit a computer up to 14.5 inches wide...on other sites to purchase the Commute I see the size listed as 13.8...which on is correct? Are there two different Medium sizes?
