Business travellers are fuelling a growing mountain of lost laptops at UK airports which are increasingly being auctioned off as their owners fail to claim them.
Air travellers leaving the United Kingdom on Thursday faced the strictest security measures in years: iPods, mobile phones, laptops, and even books and magazines were no longer permitted as carry-on items.
There are lots of fiddly little rules surrounding backup and disaster recovery, but some of them are, to be frank, blindingly obvious. At the top of my personal list would be this one: don't check your notebook PC as hold luggage when you get on a plane.
Increased airport security means business travellers may be separated from their essential gadgets for some time to come.
