I'm a freak for traveling light. Haven't checked a bag in years. Since I'm always looking to lighten the load, I finally broke down and bought a MacBook Air laptop, the world's thinnest notebook. My IT guys had warned me off saying it was fragile and has limited memory, but once they actually saw it and used it, they're now salivating for their own. This aluminum beauty is light as a feather. Slips into your bag or briefcase like a magazine. True, not a ton of memory, but I just leave iTunes and movies on a regular Macbook at home and synch the video and music I want for traveling to my iPhone. My only regret is that I waited so long.
