Although it sounds pathetically insane but that is what is currently practiced by custom officers at the Los Angeles International Airport.

Sadly to say, it is a matter of privacy intervention from my point of view.

As in the state’s latest ruling handed down yesterday by the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco, it will authorize airport searches to be conducted on any electronic devices such as cellphones, laptops, etc.

This rule came about search-and-seizure case when a U.S. Customs inspector found child porn on a laptop belonging to an O.C. resident Michael Arnold when he passed through LAX in 2005 after a trip to the Philippines.

A black ink has definitely pollute the clear water and because of this stupid issue people traveling will have to accommodate these sets of problems.

So far it has been implemented in Los Angeles …. and God knows where else this insane practice is going to be implemented next.

Drop me a comment cause I find this absolutely NUTS!

If you are working on a Microsoft Office 2003 or earlier suite on your laptop and you wanted to perform operations like opening, editing and saving your documents, spreadsheets and presentations with the file formats of Office 2007 …… now you can.

The tip is to download and install the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack.

With this tool, you can retain the current Microsoft Office suite that you are using plus the ability to perform your works on the Microsoft Office 2007 based files.

How do you if it is a Microsoft Office 2007 format?

Simple ….. anything that ends with an “x” alphabet like (.docx for words), (.xlsx for excel) and (.pptx for powerpoint) are the xml based and the new Microsoft Office 2007 file formats.

It would great if you have the full featured Office 2007 suite as you can enjoy a feature-rich product with a lot of great enhancements.

It is true ….. it’s damn true (Hey I’m not a mimic Kurt Angel infamous phrase am I? )

Anyway here’s the truth.

We, laptop users - myself included, need to give us time for some breaks as and when neccessary; while working our heart and soul for long hours while using the laptop.

This good practice applies to those using the desktops as well ……

What type of break, you might wonder?

Stretching yourself is a good start.

I say ….. after every 30 to 45 minutes on the laptop, you must make it a habit to stretch yourself.

This will improve your mind and allows good blood circulation to the laptop users while working long hours  (and hopefully remains fresh) when using the laptop, be it for work or play.

By doing some of these neck stretching exercises,  you’ll be surprised that you feel better and NOT tired after that.

Try it ….. and I’ll be back soon to give more laptop good practices so you will enjoy your time working on your laptop.
