Customs Inspected My Bag and...

[dareutwo]

Mail your laptop home overnight - it will be there when you are.
When we had our band together, we would always send 1 briefcase full of band pics, recordings, demos, etc... ahead.

Back in the 80's, the x ray machines would render the demo tapes useless. But because the case was metal and couldn't be x rayed, they would simply open it up, look at the junk and pass it on. (we never locked the case - just taped the latches shut, so they could look at it)
The theory still works, it will simply be another laptop, even going through customs.
