I have a $100 Garmin e-Trek Legend or whatever and this thing is not only cool, but has saved my life. I can arrive on train in a city (while holding it out the window of the train to judge exactly how fast I'm going and how long it'll be), put a waypoint at my hotel and turn it off. I'll walk all around the city, get totally lost, put in 20 miles or more on foot, and then take it out an hour from sundown and walk toward the waypoint. It seems like such old, outdated technology now, but I love it. Probably 2 solid months of traveling on one set of batteries. e Sleep masks and ear plugs. Yes. I have a good $7 pair from the army that has little mini plugs that I can remove if I'm on a shooting range and want to hear conversation but not explosions, and fully plugged do a good job of blocking everything. Cheap ones work good too! Sleep masks look dorky and you may well do enough with a cap over your face, but in 100 degrees and humidity, that may not be an option. i say swears online fucked around with this message at 05:55 on May 30, 2011 |

I'm moving to Nigeria, for at least a year. My current laptop is a giant refurb I picked up a couple years ago for $100, and I ain't bringin' it. I need a computer that can fit in a carry-on bag (which is all I'm taking). It has to act as my main computer for at least a year, but I don't do anything intensive. If it can run something like a DOTA game, that's a plus but no worries, I can live without games for awhile. $400 max is my budget, preferably half that. I've looked at buying a tablet pc, but I'm very concerned about ease-of-use for an everyday computer. Windows I know, the other OS's I'd have to be convinced into purchasing.
