I am gonna replace my existing bag with a new one soon...

I just need to carry a notepad, a 14.1in laptop, may be a shirt or two..
What kind of bag would be suitable for my needs...A backpack or a side/shoulder bag
or which one do you guys prefer:-D

Get a good back pack, one of those Swiss Gear ones. Really nice, and the weight is evenly distributed to both shoulders. I had a side bag for like 5 years (office) -- messed up my back.
