My buddy in Chiang Mai insisted I ditch the big laptop for a tablet

I thought he was crazy, but after hauling a 15-inch machine through airports for a year, switching to a 12-inch iPad Pro with a keyboard was a game changer. Anyone else have gear advice that seemed wrong but saved your back?

My old boss made us all switch to tiny 10-key calculators. Hated it at first. Now I can't go back to a full keyboard one. Same with my giant wallet. Friend bet me I could use a card holder for a month. That was three years ago. We fight the bulk without even knowing it.

Nah, I'm the opposite. Tried a tablet for work and it drove me crazy. My big laptop stays, back pain or not. Some stuff just needs the real keyboard and screen space.

Realize we're just hauling around our own comfortable, heavy habits.

Man, switching to a tiny travel mouse felt so dumb until I tried it.
