I remember a discussion on this subject on the Model 100 SIG on Compuserve
a year or so back.

At that time it _was not possible_ to take a laptop through security at German
airports. Their regulations required that they _open_ the things! Thus, no
laptops as carry-on.

European Airport Security is usually _much_ tighter than ours. For good reason.
