At this point most professionals have to have laptop, since there are a lot of software that give people more abilities to do things... Like Mechanical Engineers don't need to do any drawing by hands any more since there are software that do it for them... Engineers don't have to carry around un notebook & calculators to make their calculus about any problem that have to be fixed, since with a laptop & the proper software, they just need to introduce the data in the laptop & they have everything there.... I'm an Engineer, who is carried a laptop all they long.... I even do my presentacion in powerpoint to show my ideas to my collegue or clients....
