I'm debating whether I should travel with my laptop this summer, when I am going to Canada and later France this summer. I already have the different travel plugs, and bringing it will definitely make life easier in communicating and making sure the travel plans I make are good. But then it is always inconvienet carrying a laptop. You have to take it out at the checkpoint at the airports, and it's also delicate and people might steal it.

So what are you guys' take on traveling with laptop? Maybe I should just leave it at home instead?
