I've found it very useful to have the new laptop, as it's a lot more portable and generally useable than my old one. Today for example, I had a normal recitation section I was going to teach for CS1, and no-one showed up. Instead I got a bunch of work done while waiting around to see if anyone would show up.
I think in general it helps to have things close at hand: I may have mentioned before that I have trouble if I have ideas for blog posts and don't have anything handy to write them down. Clearly I should just carry my laptop around more places, but it's still a bit bulky to do so.
Hmm, maybe in a few years we'll all be using really small units with projected holographic displays... there's a dream. :)
