I'm interested in portability and using it on a tabletop to show instructional DVDs. Is it easy to carry/move around ?

I am a 60 yr old woman and I can carry this.. it has no handles though and my personal opinion is that it can be moved without a great deal of effort but I wouldn't consider it portable.

I would say as far as 32 inch TVs go with DVD players,yes. Mine is mounted on the wall but I mounted it by myself it was relatively easy.

You could use it for that but it is a little heavy and awkward to travel easily. It would be a lot easier to use a larger lap top as far as portability!

Actually yes it is. I travel a lot and bring a desktop and the TV as monitor and play my higher end vidgames on it.

Well, it's highly portable since it's just a single screw to tighten it to a desk and two screws on the monitor back, but it's a pretty damn heavy unit and doesn't fold down much. It'll be fine in the boot of the car but you're not going flying with it.

Yes, it is quite portable, but if you have heavy laptop, it wobbles. It is little difficult to fit in small place because it's legs are too long.

Hi, Robin ... for give the delay in response. I have been away from my email. I found this item to be easy to carry and very easy to unfold. I could imagine it being very useful as temporary seating during a visit. It is not designed for comfort, but for portability and durability. Nonetheless, we found it stable and accommodating for people of different sizes while on various outdoor treks. I hope you find this response helpful.

If you want to travel with it and other items in the rolling case them no. It is portable as in you can easily take it from place to place but it would take up a lot of space in a carry on suitcase

It's strictly a table top device. The hard drive trays are pretty fragile, plus the enclosure is not very rugged. It's great for what it is, but it is not made for portability.

I appreciate the tip about the Sony PSP. I'll Look into that. I actually already have a really good Sony Portable DVD. There are just a couple of problems with it that seem to be the downfall with most Portable DVD players. First it is really pretty bulky and with Airport security and the rest of the craziness with air travel, the less and the lighter the load with a small child in tow is preferable. The other problem is her want to remove/change DVDS on her own which is tending to cause some damage to the DVDs themselves. I still haven't purchased anything because I am really trying to find the best item to suit my needs and I really appreciate the helpful advice. I appreciate the tip about the Sony PSP.

Hi,This is a pretty good machine with no obvious shortcoming that I could find (I have this one for a few weeks). The best thing is this is one of the best buy for this price range. I will be cautious about the DVD drive thought - it seems somwhat flimsy./Abhijit

The laptop will move around a lot because of the depth of the case and the inside isnt very padded. You can probably get a fitted case for the laptop and then drop it into the case with your other documents and necessities.

It is not really portable as a laptop would be. It is relatively light, but awkward to carry. More a desktop computer.

You could close the tripod and push the legs together and carry it around like a monopod , but it is not a monopod. If you really want a monopod I would suggest a Dolica WT-1003. Its lightweight, aluminum and very easy to pack or carry around for photo shoots. It has a screw on the base to stablize the monopod to prevent slipping on surfaces and it has worked fine for me. The price was around 20.00 and reasonable. It comes with its own canvas bag and it slips into your luggage very easily. If you use a ipad for pictures, you can also purchase a frame for it that attaches to the top for a few dollars more and it is handy when you don't want to use the camera. Happy Travels

Yes, it's great for those things. It's a bit big when compared to a laptop or tablet, so you may or may not enjoy moving it around often, but it works very well, I run all those apps you mentioned.

I think its a great option. Its lightweight and has great mobility. We generally use this at festivals and have been very happy with its performance.

It can be handled easily however each time you move it you take a chance of damaging the screen material or the coating on the frame. Storage would seem to be a problem. This screen is like a piece of furniture. It looks good in place. If you need to to set up and take down after each use I would get a portable roll up screen. This type protects itself and takes up far less space.

As long as your tablet can handle the software needed to move the equipment yes. However, if you have a basic tablet you might want to invest in a more robust tablet.

I would recommend this stand for DVD's. It is light and portable. No space for multi-disc sets. It will very loosely hold CD's and blu rays but the slightest movement of the rack causes them to shift or fall out. Not sure about games as I didn't try.I would look for a horizontal storage system if you want to store all items together.

Intuos 6x8 is portable and it should be fine. I see alot of digital artists carrying it and stuffing them into their laptop cases. But my friend who has it broke the thing in like a month (her dad accidently dropped it) so be sure to get the insurance thing and be very careful!
