For this week's giveaway, we've teamed up with Case Logic to offer MacRumors readers a chance to win one of the company's new Larimer Rolltop Backpacks. The backpack is available in "Hudson," a mix of blue, mint, yellow, and green, or "Petrol Green," a mix of green, tan, blue, and red. It's described by Case Logic as a utilitarian daypack that's able to hold a ton of stuff thanks to a multitude of pockets and an expandable rolltop feature.

Like many Case Logic products, the Larimer Rolltop Backpack is made from a durable 600D polyester with a water-repellent coating, which is designed to stand up to damage. Padded, adjustable straps ensure it's comfortable to wear for long periods of time even when packed with gear.
The backpack, which has a matching multi-color diamond-patterned interior lining, can hold a MacBook up to 15 inches in its padded laptop compartment, and there's also a slip pocket for a tablet up to 10.1 inches, which will accommodate the iPad Air 2, the 9.7-inch iPad Pro, or a smaller tablet.

Accessories can be put inside a zippered front pocket or an internal zippered pocket, and with the rolltop expanded, there's additional space for any essentials. A nylon web is attached at the bottom for securing a hat or shoes.

Look at my profile icon. That's my face when looking at this backpack.
Don't get all the negative comment, you like it enter the contest, you don't ....well don't enter ;)...
It's a free contest. You could have a free drawing for dog poop and you would have people entering....With more than 4000 entries it means that at least 1000 people more or less are interested (given an average 4 entry each) so I would say either people want to win just to win or more than 1000 really need / like this bag :D
Setting the colors aside for a moment, the roll top just seems very inconvenient. Any time you want something out of the main compartment you have to unsnap, unroll, remove item, re-roll and re-snap. That seems like it will be very annoying after about a day.
I get the waterproofing aspect. But it just seems like a huge price to pay in convenience.
