Answer 1 :
you first need a transformer and an adapter. UK is 220vt -like here in Spain- and I think Latin America is 110v and different plug. beside of this, you wont have any problem.
Answer 2 :
If not, you can always buy an adapter which makes it possible
Answer 3 :
Latin America uses 240-220v power sockets. if your laptop say it only uses 120-110v you are going to need an adapter for 240 to 120v outlet. Most laptops now (new ones 2-3 years old) come with their power adapters with 240-120v usage. check your power supply for your laptop - it should say something like Voltage Range

Answer 1 :
You should have no problem connecting via WLAN or LAN to the internet. The only problems you may encounter are certian keyboard muck-ups (nothing to worry about), but other than that, you are good to go!
Answer 2 :
You will need to conenct your wireless up the same way you connnected your laptop up to your internet at home, if you are not sure ask the hotel. If they claim to have wi-fi then you should no problem, make sure however this is FREE wi-fi otherwise you could have a hefty bill at the end of your trip.
Answer 3 :
if the hotell offers Wifi then you can use connect to that via the wireless card, i have a UK laptop and live in teh US and it works fine. Also most hotels offer FREE wifi over here, unlike england where u pay through the nose for everything. And unlike the other guy said, the keyboard will be no problem, it will stay exactly as it is.
Answer 4 :
If your laptop has a wireless adapter, you'll be fine. Otherwise, bring an ethernet cable. You won't need an ISP, because the hotels provide their own internet. Also, make sure to bring an adapter for your power cable! I've travelled abroad, and it was a disappointing thing to forget!
Answer 5 :
Everything Will J said is correct. The only other problem I see you having is with outlets (the ones here in the U.S. are shaped differently) but you should be able to find a cable that will solve that problem.
Answer 6 :
just turn on ur wifi and log on simple--- am sure the front desk will be glad to help if u have a prob

Is anywhere in the UK doing laptop trade ins for new ones?
Is anywhere in the UK doing laptop trade ins for new ones?
I have a laptop at the moment which is working and in quite good condition but I've been looking at getting a better one but I want to try and trade the one I have in to get a little (doubt it will be much!) bit of money off. Anyone know of a place that is doing that? Or will be?

Answer 1 :
PC World do trade ins, but they screw you over. You're better selling your old one on eBay. A good, fast laptop will get £100. An older, slower laptop might only get £30. You'd get three or four times that on eBay.
