Bringing a laptop to Japan?
So I'm heading off to Japan tomorrow and I was wondering if I should bring my Macbook Pro. Is there a danger that it could be stolen, and would it be any higher than here in the US? Can I use it with its current power adapter? Will it work with "Japanese Wi-Fi"? Thankkks much, any other comments are appreciated.

Yes, it will work in Japan, no worries
Answer 3 :
The power adapter for the MBP is self-regulating. So, it will accomodate the 110v/50Hz Japanese current just fine. WiFi is an international standard, and as long as you have the WPA password, you can join a network just like you do in the west. The protocols used here are 802.11b 802.11a 802.11g and 802.11n. Also, there is FAR less chance of thievery in Japan then in the West. I am constantly amazed by the lack of theft here. Enjoy your trip
