I used to have to carry laptop around the world. And the 1997,98,99 ... models were 10 lbs each?
Then I was asking, why do we have to carry a laptop especially if I was travelling to locations where we have our own branch offices. I am still asking the same question now that I no longer have to carry laptop. Many times I am tempted to get one BUT always talked myself out of it because I know if I have one I WILL carry it everywhere I go. And I don't want that. So, I use internet cafe or libraries if I am not at home to use my desk-top. I have to pay for the services, and I have to do some extra work, some planning and make sure I have all the files I would need email before hand, I even save and send hyperlinks via email... Therefore, it is possible for most people to just walk into any place that have a PC, internet connections and be able to logon and work. In my opion. Of course, I know there will be many, but, but, but ... Personally I think we have to look at accessing information from a different angle. I look at info super highway the same as transport system. We don't have to buy a plane or a train or a ship to go from A to Z. We only have to buy a ticket.
