On either side of the bag, there are 0.5″ bumpers which have been sewn in. These bumpers catch the special hook on each side of the three dividers (see photos below), so it’s like the inverse of a hanging file: the dividers can easily slide wherever needed in the compartment to keep files crisp and undamaged, or they can simply be removed. This is one of the coolest specialized features I have ever seen in any bag.” - Jodie Hughes (geardiary.com) raves about the Tom Bihn Zephyr an excellent, slightly down-sized briefcase/computer bag  that would make an ideal traveling companion for the light traveler. It could be your new best friend if your a fast-moving business traveler or compact notebook toter.
 
Another reviewer likes it too (especially with the excellent Absolute Shoudler Strap) - at notebookreview.com:
 
Even when I loaded it up with my laptop, power cord, mouse, purse, paperwork, and a large novel, it didn’t feel too bulky. And thanks to the Absolute Shoulder strap it didn’t hurt my shoulder like my old backpack use to. No more strap marks!”
