I use my laptop when I travel mainly to store pictures on. I take a ton of photos when I travel. When we go to family reunions, I take the laptop so that I can burn the pictures to disk for people. That way I can give them the disk there rather than having to burn it at home then mail it out or find another means to get it to them. I just mainly use it for convenience.
