Should I bring my laptop to europe?
OK well I am traveling to europe for a little over 2 weeks (Italy and France) and I am not worried of taking it on the plane, etc. The only thing I am worried about is leaving it in the hotel room. I of course would leave it in my locked suitcase, but still! I would hate to lose it and I really want to bring it so I can upload pictures, check weather, etc. What's your opinion? I am staying at good hotels, not holes in the walls FYI

I think you should. Having a computer is always useful no matter if you are at home or halfway across the world.
2 :
If you do, make sure to buy a proper wall outlet converter or it won't really matter if it gets stolen.

TAKE IT! of course take it! you could skype and stuff, and find out about things to do! don't even worry for a second about it getting stolen, if you're staying in a good hotel, AND locking it in the suitcase no one is gonna touch! heck even if you wouldn't lock it in a good hotel no one would ever go through your suitcase. i even stayed in crappy hostels and just locked my suitcase, and no one touched anything. however to remember to bring a proper outlet indeed.. haha have lot's of fun!

your macbook should have a wifi card already installed... you dont need to buy a modem... just hook up wirelessly to the internet at wifi spots in ur hotel or throughout italy... i bought an iTouch just for travelling... and always find free wifi spots anywhere I go....

You can buy the modem, but that doesn't mean that you'll have internet everywhere. You will also need an internet provider, OR an area where there is free internet, like a Cafe. But if you want to go to a Cafe, use wireless instead. As far as suggesting a modem, most of them are fine. Cisco makes good products, same with Belkin, Netgear. Modem's shouldn't go more then 30 USD - Since you'll be in a place where there is no wireless, you'll still need an internet provider to get to the internet.

Start button,and type in Webcam in the search button. that usually works for my mother edit: OR if you're on Yahoo instant messenger and you have a dialogue box open with your sister, then go under"Actions" and click"Invite to view my webcam" and it'll work that way too
2 :
Download Skype, it's a free video phone. If your sister downloads it you can both see and speak to each other for free. Skype turns on your videocam when you call.
