car to avoid exposing the computer to excessive heat.

When going through airport security, it is recommended that you
send the computer and flash disks through the X-ray machine (the
device you set your bags on). Avoid the magnetic detector (the device
you walk through) or the magnetic wand (the handheld device used
by security personnel).

If you plan to travel abroad with your computer, consult your dealer
for the appropriate AC power cord for use in your country of
destination.
