Traveling with the Computer

Preparing the Computer

Prepare the computer as if you were taking it home. Be
sure the battery in the computer is charged. Airport
security often requires you to turn on your computer when
bringing it into the gate area.

What To Bring with You

Bring the following items with you:

AC adapter

Spare, fully-charged battery packs

Media bay modules (external floppy and CD-ROM drive)

Additional printer driver files if you plan to use another
printer

Special Considerations

In addition to the guidelines for taking the computer home,
follow these guidelines to protect your computer while
traveling:

Always take the computer as carry-on luggage.

If possible, have the computer inspected by hand. The
computer can safely pass through security X-ray
machines, but never expose the computer to a metal
detector.

Avoid exposing floppy disks to hand-held metal
detectors.
