I have an interesting dilemma that I need help with.
I have a flight from California to the Kansas City on Thursday and I have to take my computer with me.
It's a Centurion 5 case with an 8800GTS and a Zalman 9700 CPU cooler (The only 2 things that stick up way off the motherboard). I can carry it on and let them Valet check it if it doesn't fit in the overhead, or I can check it at the gate.
I have 2 questions.
1) How do I pack it so that Donnie the Retard bag handler doesn't destroy it when I check it? I do have a suitcase big enough to hold it.
2) Am I going to get a ton of crap from the security people if I try to take it on the plane with me?
I have heard that all I need to do is bubble wrap it to death and surround it with clothes in my suitcase. Some have said that I need to stuff the case with newspaper to keep the components from moving around. I'm confused.
Any help would be great.
