Best Hardware for when you are travel writing…

The first distinction we have to make is when and where do you like writing the most. The user of the Personal Computer in the modern age is likely to sway toward a Macintosh, where design and lifestyle take heavy precedence. It looks great, makes one fashionable and all together stylish.

The PC on the other hand, or for the most senses, Personal Computers always took its roots from customization. The Macintosh is design heavy and for the most part lends itself to diversity of product. Two very unique approaches to the Personal Computer took shape. An ideal would be to have all computers take on design as the front-runner to the type of extension you want your machine to represent you in a certain way, it’s design should extend beyond your own personality.

But, for the users of more mainstream thinking, the belief is simple… customization, customization, customization. Here the PC is the better bet, for writing, PCs’ outside of the Macintosh fashion statement that it is, works on a different level. The PC can be custom made to take on the writer of more conventional practices. A machine built to allow for solid handling when in tough terrain. We want a machine that allows us, writers, to engage in the writing as if we were holed up in a bunker writing 10,000 words per day and reading a further 30,000 words per day — a book for every three days and enough fuel(vocabulary) to last us for the next day’s trek through the world of writing, and not just for travel too. My choice is the sturdier machine, custom built for word processing. I am a PC!! And, as a part-time hobbyist the personal collection works for the abbreviation as well. No pun intended.
