Pretty cool...

That looks conspicuously like a bag I bought from my favorite surplus site,
http://www.cheaperthandirt.com

you can buy foreign bags and backpacks on there (I got a North Korean Army bag) that have dividers in them,
but look like crappo on the outside so no one wants it....I think mine was $7 or something. Might be a good base
for building this camera bag.

Army surplus stores can be a treasure trove for inexpensive travel gear. Guaranteed to last.  Smiley

I've used a padded, insulated lunch cooler inside a backpack or shoulder bag as a makeshift camera bag in the past.

Thanks for the link Greg. I think I just found a solution to my "back pack s are too expensive problem". Feel free to answer my question in the other post (in the gear section) anyway, but I may have found a better solution.
