Onto cooking systems, jetboil? Coleman? MSR? other?
Jetboil seems nice... if all you ever want to do is boil water with expensive and far too unique of a fuel cannister. I never liked systems like that which always seemed top heavy once filled with water or food. And the gas cannister for most models says it will only boil 12 liters of water. So basically if you use half a liter for each meal you've only got a week of meals? I dont like the thought of that. What happens when you are 2 weeks from your next stop and you only have one tank?

MSR Whisperlite. Or Whisperlite International. Do it. Do it.
