You should have provided one more option:
"Laptop?, what laptop?".

I must be the most anti-tech IT guy.
- I have no laptop
- I begrudgingly got a cell phone a few years ago, but all it does it make calls (no internet or camera). I can text with it, but it is very cumbersome. But I think I can count all the text messages I ever sent on one hand.
- I am not on any social network sites (no FaceBook, LinkedIn, MySpace, etc).

But, hey, I have email!:biggrin:

Maybe I'm the *second* most anti-tech IT guy... Except for the laptop, same as Joe.

I have taken my laptop away on the odd weekend away, but usually that's because I was going from work and had it in my bag anyway. I seldom try to work when I'm on holiday although I have answered clients' calls at strange times of the day and night.

Thanks all for the responses. I have had a number of surveys running and the conclusion is that with a combined sample of about 180 people 56% of people travel with a laptop.

I may reveal later why exactly I need to know this info. It all depends really.... Either my venture will be a complete flop and I'll be too embarassed to say or I'll be filthy rich living in a mansion somewhere exotic and either have forgotten who you all are or just pretend I don't know you. :stickouttounge:
 
I took my laptop with me once and it took me about 2 months to get back into the missus' good books...
 
I use to take mine with me, but ever since I got my Asus EEE transformer tablet that's all I carry. With the keyboard option its a life saver if someone sends me something I need to look at in excel or autocad. Plus I just take it out of the keyboard and have my e reader with me.
 
My work laptop stays at home or office, but my Macbook Pro ALWAYS comes along on holidays. I photograph a lot and I need the HDD + ext HDDs to store them and to exec a daily review of what I have shot.
I don't email during holidays or browse the web and I'm not partial to facebooking.:biggrin:
