A man bag is technically a "purse" which is bigger than a typical purse, making it suitable for a man. People consider some backpacks or messenger bags to be man bags too.

My manbag is a Louis Vuitton Petit Messenger bag.

Inside I carry:

--Louis Vuitton Damier Graphite wallet
--Louis Vuitton Damier coin purse (Japan uses coins for 100 yen and 500 yen [$1 and $5] so we always have lots of coins)
--Burberry sweat rag to wipe my sweaty balls with
--Aspirin
--iPod nano 4th gen
--An extra pair of those little plastic collar stays for dress shirts (I travel every weekend and often forget them)
--iPhone 3G white
--Car key for my ballin' Daihatsu Mira Custom X

Yeah, I'm a tart

Heres my bag. I'm looking to get a 13" macbook to put in it next.
lol

I have that one in green! Must admit though it is a pain to fit a 15" MBP in...I have to stand it on the end, and it sticks out the top. Grrr.

My normal bag is a Crumpler New Delhi 390, containing:
Canon EOS 5D Mark II
Canon EF 50mm f/1.2L USM + Hood
Canon EF 16-35 f/2.8L II USM + Hood
Canon OC-E3 Flash Cord
Canon Powershot SX200 IS (Red)
Sennheiser CX300 Headphones
iPod USB Cable
iPod USB Charger
Keys
Mini USB to USB Cable
AA Batteries
Loose change

It would depend on what the purpose is, but:

I have a Chrome messenger bag for when I'm out riding and I need to pick things up from the store, or I bring a book to read while getting coffee, or riding somewhere with a change of clothes, I also have my bike tools, and spare parts (tubes, tires, mini co2 pump), bike lock + cable and lights for night-time in the bag as well.

I have an incase messenger bag for carrying around my macbook pro. I usually have a g-drive 500GB, 1 or 2 photo magazines, my journal, several pens, and a pencil, ipod cables, headphones, sometimes my 160GB iPod classic, logitech wireless mouse, USB card reader, and sometimes my Leica D-Lux 4

If I'm out shooting (which is most every day) I carry my photo gear in a Domke F-2. I typically have my 5D2 and 3-4 lenses plus a flash in there (usually small fast primes) or sometimes I'll take the 40D and a 24-70 + 70-200, 85 f/1.8 and a flash if I'm shooting sports

On a typical day I will usually have both the laptop bag and camera bag with me or on me at the same time. I'll post some pictures soon :)
