Burton Zoom or something else?

I'm looking for the perfect backpack to use to take to my two week tour of italy and switzerland. I'm new to photography there for I only have one DSLR (Nikon d50), two lens (18-55 and 55-200), and a point and shoot. I looked at a Burton Focus and Burton Zoom, but they are hard to come by, even on the internet, and they look as though they are too bulky. The catch is that I'm bringing my 15 inch macbook with me and need proper storage for my DSLR, lenses, point and shoot, laptop, and small essentials. PLEASE HELP!
