Part of my master plan for travelling abroad includes the purchase an iBook or PowerBook as opposed to my massive PC rig. I anticipate actually acquiring a machine in the next month or so and departing the US sometime in the months following but before the end of the year.
That said, what kind of concerns should I have while travelling with my machine? Aside from voltage conversion differences, will I have any trouble interfacing with local WiFi hotspots or in using burned discs in coffeeshop machines to upload blog posts or photos? My itinerary will most like include the U.K., travelling south from there to Hungary and most likely ending up in Italy with maybe a jaunt or two to post-Olympics Greece.
I am editing this to make the point that it seems like a LOT of the posters here are based abroad from the US, the U.K. mainly from what I can see. Should I take this to mean Europe is quite Apple friendly or was the site just started by a European and so mainly is a European hang-out?
