Laptops and personal info
An interesting and somewhat scary article about customs officials accessing travelers information on laptops and cell phones. This primarily deals with international travel but its still good to know. I use True Crypt on my laptop to make sure no one goes through my crap. Hell, they won't even know its there by using it.
