Every Day Carry

So as anyone who knows me knows I have become rather addicted on every day carry gear thanks to Uncrate.com and then Everydaycarry.com ! I know the concept is to be prepared for anything with what you carry and certain folks take it to different extremes. Having worked in IT for several years I realize I carry a lot more along with me than the average Joe as I always need to be ready to log in from no matter where I am. The balance I have been seeking is to keep it as light as I can while keeping the fullest set of features.

My day to day back pack is the Booq Boa Squeeze which gives me plenty of storage while holding it snug to my back, of note, I prefer the original with the felt lining throughout compared to the newer version which has better pocket placement but the felt is easier on my gear.

For my computer I carry the Microsoft Surface Pro 3 which is a very compact form factor for a device that can easily replace a laptop, tablet, and a PC. I started off with the lowest spec which is an I3 1.5 GHz with 64GB SSD and 4GB RAM. I basically chose this level as I wasn't sure what my level of commitment was going to be.  Frankly I couldn't be happier and I still haven't put together my home workstation yet. As accessories I have the Surface Pro Type Cover, Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter,  Surface Pen, and the Arc Touch Mouse Surface Edition.

As for my reading material I carry the Kindle Paperwhite which has been a pleasure to use and though Im still not certain I like the constant back lighting I am very fond of the device as a whole.
