If you need to go on a conference to assist or to give a presentation of your work, The I.P.G. Lab put at your disposition a laptop that you can carry and use for your daily work. We have a limited number of laptop available for this task and the rule to assign them is: the first that ask win. The laptop, hopefully still working, must be returned to the System Administrators when you come back.

<note> If for some strange and inexplicable reason you crashed/loosed the laptop, please don't be afraid and inform the System Administrator as soon as possible, so we can start the insurance procedure.
inexplicable reason include also: alien attacks, flooding in mountain, flying sheeps (or any others things that don't have wings), kids (only if under 5 years), parents (only if over 70 years), … </note>

If you're traveling outside Switzerland we can also provide electrical adapters for different countries (Australia, U.S.A., Germany, U.K., France, Italy, ecc.).

Outside Switzerland and you need to connect your laptop to the power line. As you discovered pretty soon the plugs in Switzerland are slightly different and you need an adapter and/or a different power cable.
Our Labs can provide both, but, please return them when you leave.

If you're looking for information on how to connect your laptop to our network, please refer to
