Should I bring
my laptop computer?
Bringing a laptop is fine, as long as you know that it can handle the different
electrical current in Italy (220V). Bear in mind that if you plan to use your
laptop for Internet connection, telephone charges (which are very expensive),
will apply. Apicius does offer Internet access (for a nominal fee) for Apicius
students. Therefore we suggest it may make more sense to plan on using the
computer lab at Apicius or one of the convenient cybercafes in Florence. Joining
a cybercafe is inexpensive and convenient, since most remain open late at night.
