CHAPTER 6: Traveling with Your Notebook
If you plan to use several USB peripheral devices, take
a portable USB hub to provide additional USB ports.
Take a network cable if you need to connect to a
network. Some hotels provide Internet connectivity
only through their networks.
If your notebook has been exposed to cold
temperatures, allow it to warm to room temperature
before turning it on.
Carry proof of ownership or a merchandise passport
when traveling internationally.
Consult your insurance company and credit card
company to learn about emergency travel assistance if
your notebook is lost or damaged.
Take your recovery discs in case you need to install an
additional driver or software.
