This bag is so dirt cheep I can't imagine anybody NOT buying it.
Shoot, you can't even buy a quality book bag for that price.

I haven't broken mine off yet, but I did use a permanent marker
to blacken it. I figured that between the printer and the bag,
I can pretend to be a 5D shooter.

This is true for a lot of uses where a standard shoulder bag
will be better. However, I find that I carry mine just over a
shoulder most of the time--rarely do I put it on my back unless
I'm hiking for a ways.
The biggest recommendation I can make for ALL
backpacks--regardless of brand or purpose is two fold:
1. Keep the zipper to one side--never meeting in the middle at
the top.
2. Tie a knot in the ends of the adjustment straps. The nylon
buckles when subjected to a slight upward pressue will allow the
strap to slip out (at great speed) causing the entire bag to
fall to the ground.
