I carry two laptops; a Lenovo T510 and a X100e. The X100e probably fits the physical definition of a netbook, although it is promoted as a true ThinkPad.

Now, I could leave it in my laptop bag, but with all the other chargers, cell phones, camera, etc. I know that the image on the x-ray will show a lot of stuff there. So instead of wasting time while they resolve an image, it rides through in it's own tub.

Since I don't waste time and have pocket change, money clip, belt, etc. already secured in my bag before I get to the TDCer, sending the X100 through in it's own tub is not that big a deal (at least in the overall scheme of things).
