I can remember a method that works.
My sister set up her HIFI speakers on either side of her desktop PC. Needless to say after a couple of weeks she rang me up to ask why her files kept getting randomly renamed (and some deleted) and her PC was having trouble booting.
I think the speakers were 100W middle of the price range, so they were fairly powerful.
Also on helicopters. A Telltale is put on the windscreen and you can tell if you are travelling straight forwards or are proceeding at an angle. i.e. helicopter proceeding at 12:00 and fusilage pointing at 11:58.
Suggest you get in contact with some people who have travelled with a laptop for that purpose.

This is the website of two relatives who travelled from Canada to the south of South Amercia on a motorbike. Their laptop survived the trip, might be worth asking them.
I will just wait until you pesky North Americans are in bed and download in the morning UK time, ha ha.
Wait, no, everyone forget I said that!
Aww, now you all will try then.
Unfortunately if you live in the UK, have such a file on your HD and forget the password. That can land you in jail for 2 years for failing to supply the decryption key.
Not reccomended!
We already have a database with (almost) everyone's name and address in it, its called the electoral role. So putting my name and address on a petition does not bother me in the slightest.
I own a camera phone and find that when shopping for furniture having a picture of the space where the new item is to go helps greatly.
Also if you are buying an expensive item, taking a picture of it (with permission of the store) and mulling it over can also ease the purchasing decision.
If I want to take a quality photo I will use my film or quality digital camera. Having a camera with you for those spur of the moment times is great!
I find it usefull having a camera and as it is detachable (on my phone anyway!) I can put away the camera part and noone can be upset.

I have a UK keyboard, you insensitive clod! My @ key resides above my right shift key.
Be careful if you live in the UK, this could be classed as material likely to be useful to a terrorist and get you arrested.
