I'm typing this on a Thinkpad X220.
Canon 6D lets me take more photos per second than my previous model.
The Lowepro Fastpack 250 has room for the laptop, the camera and lenses to spare.
I wear a Swatch model GB743, which is lightweight, ticks, and has high-contrast analog dial with day and date.
I drive electric cars: a Think from 2002 (still with original batteries), and a newer Nissan Leaf.
At the farm, I drive an Argo 580, an amphibious tracked vehicle.

Thereafter, I install the Opera browser.
Coding & Development
Then comes Prince, which converts HTML and CSS to beautiful PDF files.
I also use emacs a lot.
Other
I currently run Linux Mint on the Thinkpad.
