    Please help me!

    As well as the quick poll, please tell me what laptop stuff you normally carry aroung with your laptop.

    Thanks!

    EDIT: Please select more than one poll option if you have 2 laptops. If both laptops have the same size screen please say you have 2 in your post.

    My lappy has a whole 12" widescreen...

    My lappy bag usually contains:
    aforementioned laptop
    Power supply lead
    USB number pad
    USB memory stick
    Internet connection lead (which Ive never used since most places have wi-fi and if they dont I use GPRS)

    Other random rubbish includes:
    2 mobile phone chargers (Nokia/Samsung)
    my diary
    Nurofen and Pro-Plus
    Business Cards/Pens etc

    Theres you go.... more conclusive than the contents of my handbag!!
    If you're not living on the edge, you take up too much room

    Never really use it lol, laptop goes in the rucksack that holds me bait for the day, a spindle of cd's / dvd's 1g usb drive, normally my 200gb HD caddy thats about it.

    Bought it for uni, these days it barely gets used.



    Forgot to mention the tablet PC for work.

    12" screen, with that I carry the drive bay with the dvd burner in it, rest of it is used via wireless and the stylus instead of the attachable keyboard. If you need specs, search for the TC1100 from HP/Compaq.

    You missed 13.3" and 14".

    Mine (Dell Latitude CPi D266XT) has a 13.3" TFT (1024x768).

    I only carry around my wireless card usually when I take it places. Charger if it's a longer journey.

    I had to look that up

    My laptop is cunningly carted around in my usual backpack, with a cunning bit of bubblewrap for protection.

    The only thing i have with it is my charger, but only when I'm out for a while
    (i might now have another mouse to use with it, but that's a recent thing)

    15.4" Widescreen, Centrino Powered Acer TravelMate.

    I often just carry the lappy and paper documents with me in the bag, but if it's a long trip then the MS Wheelmouse Optical and power brick go in too.

    I have an ultra-portable laptop, so it fits perfectly in my college bag. However its old so its got a small screen as well as a poor resolution (800x600) so web browsing is teh crap.
