Lines: 22 I took my Mac Plus from Europe to here. I had no problem at all. Ask a steward to put your Mac in a special place they have for voluminous carry-on baggage. If you tell them it's a computer, they'll usually know what to do. I had no problem with my HD going through X-rays. At first, I didn't want to put it through the machine, but the security people refused to let me through without either putting through the X-ray machine, opening it, or having it run. Need I suggest numerous backups ? In my experience, Macs are fairly solid beasts. They seem to break only when you're working on this 150-page paper you haven't saved yet. Hope this helps. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Statisticians probably do it.
