The results are in, thanks to all who responded this year. There was 155 responses, and not surprisingly the iPad rules at IBM Connect. I was surprised that there were not more iPad Minis, I thought there would be more of them in the mix.
The presence of only one response of Microsoft Surface tablet did not surprise me, for a while it looked like it was going to finish at zero.
In the “Other” Category there was one Lenovo Yoga, one “Etch a Sketch” and one “Moses’ 10 Commandments” (OK so not everyone took it seriously).
The laptop question was interesting, unless I chicken out in the next day I will be headed down to Orlando for the first time without a laptop. I am at a point where I feel anything I need to do during the week can be accomplished on my iPad or Galaxy SIII. Of the 155 respondents 121 are bringing their laptops, and 34 are leaving them home. I am hoping at this time next week I will still think it was a good idea to travel without the laptop.
Leave the laptop home (and running) and get a good RDP program for the ipad and you are all set.
Just so long as you don’t have to rely on the wireless during the OGS !!
