| Tough gear for tough travel woes - 8/16/2006 | | Makers of tough-to-break, but often pricy, laptop computers and consumer electronics could get an unexpected boost from new carry-on luggage restrictions on flights to and from the United Kingdom.
Last week, British aviation officials, in response to what investigators say was a foiled terrorist plot, announced tough new regulations that temporarily barred travelers from carrying computers or other types of consumer electronics on airplanes. The stringent carry-on rules were eased Tuesday, but current restrictions on luggage size still make it tough on travelers.
