As this (and other questions) seems to come up fairly regularly, perhaps we
could have a "frequently asked questions" posting for this group. We could
include answers to such questions as:

	1) Can I use my US Mac in foreign countries.
	2) what is the best way to ship a Mac by plane?
	3) What are the best extrenal drives for the Mac (a potentially 
           emotive issue here).
        etc. etc. etc.

Is there anyone out there (for example, the man who never sleeps, Chuq) who
would be interested in maintaining and posting such an article on a regular
basis?
