I travel with a virgin laptop. If I need to check or do anything I remote in to my home computer. Now I am not saying this it is fail safe, but a quick check of my laptop will show nothing more than a basic installation with a couple extra programs on it such as firefox etc. I only browse g-rated sites (travel information, tourist stuff, weather etc.) and I will not even go to my banking site on it. There are no documents, the only pictures that end up on it are pictures of the vacation and they are more than willing to go through those. In fact, I would be delighted to tell them about the trip lol
I do NOTHING illegal, however, being in the adult industry may give some ignorant individuals the idea that there might be something illegal going on somewhere. For that reason I travel squeaky clean. Hell, even my iphone would bore the hell out of them as I have no pictures, no music.
One warning to people though is if you travel with batteries, for heaven sakes put them in your checked baggage. I made the mistake of putting a couple boxes of them in the laptop case (for the mice, camera etc.) and never thought how it would look in the x-ray. They had me to secondary inspection going through my laptop bag with a fine tooth comb. They were very nice and I said "you know I never even thought how a box of batteries might appear as something dangerous and now I feel like a total fool. They just smiled, and said no problem, finished their inspection and let us go on our way.
