Dude, Where's my laptop?

Dude, Where's My Laptop?  NFI, I hardly use it any more. 

Over the past 6 months I have pushed all my data into the cloud and migrated to as many cloud based applications as possible.  When I started this cloud computing based approach, one of the results I did not foresee was that I would no longer heavily rely on my laptop. 

For the last 10 years I have carried my laptop with me everywhere.  To work, back home, on holidays, to the coffee shop, parties, everywhere. I had just come to accept this laptop as a part of my life. I didn't mind taking my laptop everywhere and the main reason is travelled with me is so that I always would have access to the data and applications I need to do my job at any time and anywhere.   

Over the last 4 weeks I have done a fair bit of travelling and as per usual I have taken my laptop with me.  On returning from one of these trips I rushed home and didn't go through my usual arrive home ritual of unpacking and quickly setting up my laptop.  When I eventually turned my attention back to my computer related activities I  jumped on my home PC and started working away.  A couple of days later I thought, Dude where's my laptop? 

Today I find that I am using my laptop less and less.  If I am home or in the office I use a desktop PC, if I am out on business for the day I will work from my Android, if I am at a friends place I will work from any PC I have access to, and if I am sitting in the lounge room watching TV or relaxing with a drink I will use my wife's net book.   

My laptop still has its place in my life, however I am no longer reliant on it. It is not critical if its stolen, blows up or I just forget where I put it. It is no longer the most important item I own, its just a computer like any other.
