I work in a department where all the other people are married with kids.
So naturally I volunteered for a position that lets me travel all over
the world - for a few months at a time. Nothing is finalized but I
think my first stop is Seoul, Korea.

having said that I have two laptops, but I like to use a desktop. I
need a decent screen since I do alot of spreadsheets.

So, my question is, is it possible to build a $600 small form factor PC
that can be transported? I would generally UPS or FedEx the PC ahead of
me when I move.
If this is possible what components would you use?

Why not just use a large monitor, external mouse, and external keyboard
with your laptop?

Because I will need to run the machine overnight for large file transfers.

Not to be redundant, but why not just use a large monitor, external
mouse, and external keyboard with your laptop?

(in other words, you can do that with a laptop)
