Laptops are so 2007. So let's look at three alternatives for mobile lawyers tired of carrying heavy computers on the road: tablets, convertibles, and Chromebooks.
Convertibles: If a device could act as a tablet for content consumption and as a laptop for content creation — with the keyboard disappearing when you don't need it — that would be tempting. Lenovo's Yoga devices (11- and 13-inch) use a hinge to rotate the display 360 degrees, so you can configure the Yoga in various positions. In laptop mode, they work like conventional laptops. In tablet mode, the keyboard flips behind the display, out of sight. In tent mode (perfect for tight spaces or a second display), the keyboard and display are positioned in an inverted V, so you can put the display upright on a table without the keyboard getting in the way. There's also an L configuration where the keyboard is behind the screen, but flat on the table.
