This is more about travel than technology.
How many of you out there travel frequently?
I have before but I have never taken my laptop with me. Now that I am planning on leaving and not coming back for a long time I am taking everything.
What is the deal with traveling internationally with a laptop? I hear so many little bits of info around about.
Some people say you arn't allowed the battery in the laptop, others say you can. Some say you might be charged when passing through customs. Some say you arn't. Any advice?
Also just on security of information. Do customs, border control etc... ever open up the laptop and inspect the content? No one has said they do, but one travel website suggested you deleted all information from the hard-drive that was not needed (no reason given).
Thoughts?
