Using a US bought Laptop in the UK

Hey I'm travelling to the US in a few weeks and was thinking about purchasing a new laptop, other than warranty, charger problems, DVD regions and a lack of pound signs is there anything else i should be wary of?.

They put their @ where there " should be

Buy a Macbook...it won't matter with region then.

Ya, get a macbook. If i didn't already have my 1 year old laptop i woulda baught a macbook

It's been a while since I've had to deal with it, but I thought that PC DVD players will give you three region changes or something like that since the drive manufacturer has no idea where it'll get shipped to. I'm pretty sure you'll have a chance to lock in to your region.

I thought most adapters could work around the world since it is a laptop and people do travel with them. You can just look at the adapter specifications and see if it's compatible with the UK. You'll probably at least have to buy the physical plug to make it fit. At worst, you may have to buy the UK version of that laptop's adapter.

The keyboard layout will be slightly different. While you can set the keyboard layout in windows, it won't change the labels on the keyboard itself.
