The airlines have a new self-checkin system where you swipe your credit card and get your baggage claim and  boarding passes printed. Then you haul your bags to the inspector, ensure they are unlocked and leave them. Next through the security check. Two different people check your boarding pass. You have to take off your shoes (it&#8217;s a good thing I gave myself a pedicure yesterday) and put your belongings in trays, leaving the computers open to scrutiny. I was very worried about someone stealing this Powerbook so I went first, but it didn&#8217;t do any good as they put it through the system before either AJM or I could get through ourselves.
