Buying a book bag

We bought the LL Bean bookbags the last couple of years and were very disappointed with their durability, especially given their price. Had better luck with the Jansport supersized backpacks, but don’t think those will be big enough for college and a laptop.

Son has a Swiss laptop backpack he used during a college class last summer where he used a laptop, but it fits hardly any books.

Can anyone recommend a laptop backpack that will also hold a lot of books, especially for engineering/science majors who have large textbooks, or should one have a messenger bag for the laptop, and a regular backpack for the books?
