What would be the best buy for a long touring computer PC with full keyboard in 2008? Most important to me is writing, internet, weight, access to free internet sones, storage for pictures and shock resistant.
The HP is more powerful as far i can see but its also needs more space and the weight is heavier than Asus. It might has to be a very individual choice. Just wants opinions.. If extreme weight weenies would choose they choose Asus, if tech people choose they choose HP i guess. But will both could work it out on very very long tours?

Even though this forum caters to Electronics I'm certain you'll get more hits if you post it in the Commute section.
