The laptop that i carry for business is quite heavy (by necessity), making my briefcase heavy. I think that long airport treks with both a heavy briefcase and a heavy shoulder strap carry-on would be too much.
Is it an option to get a wheeled laptop bag and then you can carry clothes in a non-wheeled bag? That's what I do on many trips because my laptop and books are far heavier than my clothing.
