Really it's gonna be much easier to just have it sent to you the week you get there. Unless you absolutely, positively can't live without a laptop for an extra 3-4 days (he said with heavy sarcasm).
You won't have to lug around more crap than you already will be (seabag isn't small), seeing as you'll be both traveling AND running around base getting settled in.
Just my 2 cents though!
