When it comes to mobile computing, I don't like being weighed down. Which means that I usually travel with the smallest number of accessories that'll get the job done--and I'm a fan of ones that inv...

You could get a sheel filled with foam that conforms to the shape of your laptop, with multiple pockets that can fit any general small device,such as headphones or a wireless or usb mouse or even a presentation pointer.

I hope i helped with ideas that may soon exist as the need grows.

If you don't need a power brick unless you're gone for more than a day, I'm impressed by your laptop's battery life!

I also like to have an SD card in the Multi Card Reader just in case, and unless your traveling for more than a day, you don't need a power brick.

For a long time I only used pocket sized cameras, precisely so I didn't have to lug stuff. Recently I've gotten into DSLRs, Between the camera and the lenses and all the other stuff, they're more of a burden to carry than the computer!

well I travel quite a lot ( for not doing it for my job ) but I'm also an amateur photographer (took about 9000 photos in the last 2 years )

the trip that I do most is a nightmare trip for amateur photographers... its visiting the nurburgring... on a regular trip I have to take

- DSLR ( EOS 350D )
- Telelens ( 70 - 300 )
- Flash
- regular tripod
- Laptop ( IBM X40 12" )
- usb-powered HD ( LaCie 300 Gb )

and the thing is most races last all day long, and the track is +20km so I have to carry all that stuff all day long and walk miles with it... so it is absolutely vital that anything not directly part of the photo-equipment is as light as it can possibly be... especially the laptop!
