My recollection is that the inverter did not work with my laptop, but I don’t know if that was the inverter, or the limited amount of juice that airplanes provide. I keep it in my bag, though, to use with my netbook. I spent yesterday loading my netbook with some old games (Baldur’s Gate 2, Morrowind, Planescape Torment) for a flight to Montana in a few weeks, so I should have a better idea soon how it works with my netbook.
