The difficulty in writing a blog of this type is that you are constantly trying to find newer technology that does more and more.  So you start facing added costs.  Like I really need 6 computers.  I think it all becomes an addiction.  What can I get that is lighter and faster and, without saying it, cooler.  Por exemplo (gotta practice the Espanol), I'm at this very moment using a new Dell Mini 9. 9 inch screen. Actual dimensions about 10" by 7" by maybe 1".  Very small, keyboard is a bit cramped.  Just a bit.  But this little guy only weighs 2.5 lbs.  When you're dragging a bag through the airport, 2.5 lb. sounds and feels very good.  HOWEVER, why would that be a concern if you have a bag that has wheels on it.  Sometimes I think I get this stuff just because it's soooo cool.  I feel like I'm arguing with myself.  Who do I think I am, Barack Obama?

So what am I down to on this thing?  It may be a bit small.  I feel like I need a bigger keyboard.  BUT THE WEIGHT.  I may have this figured out. Go for something under 5 lb. WITH the adaptor. Bigger keyboard.  Bigger screen.
