A laptop which serves as both a home computer (with a docking station) and a travel computer (for real travel). An office computer. These are kept in synch (manually) via web-accessible files. The web files are the true storage. Other than that, it's just an iPhone for email. Unless I'm traveling and have my laptop, I'm not away from both home and office for long enough periods to worry about it.
