These two don't add up...
1. New Laptop powerhouse with a big screen plugged in for the desktop.... (and
you end up with a small sexy laptop and a giant box of power bricks, spaghetti
and dongles.)
My budget for computer, monitor and mass-storage device is around $1500 USD.
Sounds like you have enough quality components in the old box to justify
cobbling together a new desktop w/ new 4k 27-30" monitor within budget.
"end-of-life" laptops make fine travel companions. Actually I haven't
taken a laptop on a trip since I got the little tablet. But didn't you
take a Sherpa on your last trip? Another 10lbs shouldn't be a problem then.
