I just returned from the Usenix conference in Dallas.  I passed through
airport security three times at two airports.  Each time, I was carrying
my Toshiba 1200 (bought based on info from comp.sys.ibm.pc, Thanks!) and
asked that it be hand inspected.  The security people were friendly,
impressed by the technology, and simply required that I power on the system
to prove that it was "real".  No big deal.
