Traveling with the computer

when you are moving within a larger distance, for instance, from your
office building to a client's office building or traveling locally

Preparing the computer

Prepare the computer as if you were taking it home. Be sure the
battery in the computer is charged. Airport security may require 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
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.
