OP again. I'm going to check out the Surface Pro at Best Buy and I'll take a look at the Chromebooks too while I'm there. I worry tho about my spreadsheets which are pretty involved - would Google Apps be able to handle them?
It depends what you mean by pretty involved. Google sheets have the same spreadsheet functions available but if you use VBA to write macros in Excel then no, they don't support that.

The Chrombook looks like an interesting option, besides email and internet the only other thing I do with my laptop is download pictures from my camera can a Chrome book store photos?
Chromebooks generally come with very little in the way of storage, many only have 16 or 32G. I guess you could use a Chromebook as a temporary staging area, offload pictures from camera to Chromebook while traveling, then move to permanent storage when you get back home.
