Haven't used it with a laptop, but do have the Saddlesack Small.  Your
concerns about it hitting a frame or seatpost are valid.  In my case, it
bounces against the rear rack.  If I were to do this, would want the
computer in a protective sleeve of some sort to cushion any impact.

As to a sprung saddle cutting down on space, maybe.  But that shouldn't be
a concern for a laptop.  Maybe a laptop with a six pack of beer on top.
Lying on the side, of course.  But not just the laptop.
