fwiw, that's the rule as i've always understood it. enforcement has been lax the last few years, but in the early days of laptops being out, they were adamant that there be nothing else in the bin. so i'm with the TSO on this one -- "it's always been the rule." doesn't mean it's always been consistently enforced....
