This summer will see us doing a bit of travelling, and I'm finally giving serious thought to getting
a laptop. Any one having good or bad luck with theirs?

I stopped dragging my laptop on most of my trips and now carry my
Samsung tablet and a Chromebook. Combined they weigh about half of my
laptop alone. The tablet is used mainly for movies and games on the
plane. The Chromebook is for email and surfing the web. The tablet can
do that, too but I prefer an actual keyboard for choosing restaurants
and finding other things to do. I can also access my work computer with
the Chromebook and tablet but the Chromebook wins again for the real
keyboard. The two combined are less than a decent laptop.
