Funny, but I am debating the same thing. A week from today, I'll be in Negril...yeah!!!, I recently bought a laptop which I really love. I've been rather psyched to have it along, especially for music...which I have carefully chosen for this trip.
Now, with the time approaching...I am leaning the other way. I don't want the extra hassle. Trips to Negril are so relaxing to me and allows me to escape from all the hubub of the holidays. Simplicity is really a big part of what I love about our holiday trip. So, I may just disconnect and use Seastar's guest computer as I have in the past..checking in at home and quick emails. Maybe if I had a small netbook, etc...I might be more inclined to stash it in my purse. But for now, mi tinks I'll survive just fine. One less thing to worry about.
