Electric Toys

The entire packing process has forced me to rethink some things. The Marantz professional grade digital audio recorder is out. The Phillips electric razor stays home, as does the Iomega external CD burner. It is amazing that one would even consider bringing such a thing! My beloved Braun Oral-B Sonic Complete electric tooth brush’s fate is uncertain. There have been mixed thoughts from my fellow LP Thorn Tree posters. The digital cornucopia will include my Sony T1 digitcam, with upgraded memory (512MB) and underwater casing, a Belkin camera-to-iPod transfer thingamajig, and my Sony R505 laptop.

The laptop has been on and off the packing invoice for two weeks now. After reading some more TT posts, I decided to bring it, but ‘uglyfy’ it. It has survived for three and a half years now, so etching my name, email address and web site address on the casing is not a big deal. Neither would losing it to theft, stupidity or any other conceivable backpacker-lifestyle related death. Would you steal this laptop???

Yes, I would steal your laptop. Can I be corny now and say the line, "Can I steal your heart too?"
