Are laptops allowed in Disneyland?

This may sound like a dumb question, but I'm planning a sketch trip and am gonna do some DL digital painting, so I'll be bringing my laptop. I've never seen anyone in the park with a laptop and am almost afraid that if I go, the security checkers might think it's a stick of dynamite or something. Or maybe there's some bizarre reason that laptops aren't allowed.

If it's not allowed, the trip is moot. I figured I better check first.

The second is having some wise-acre remark.

Laptops are not allowed. Walt didn't care for them so he banned them forever from the park.

I have personally taken Laptops into the parks, and have seen others with them. No restrictions.

Re: Are laptops allowed in Disneyland?

I actually tried to take my grand piano with me, but it had a hard time fitting through the turnstyles.

Mahvelous! I'll bring t'laptop and a bunch of computer batteries, since there usually aren't outlets sticking out of the ground. Gracias muchissimo.

Re: Are laptops allowed in Disneyland?

you think they might let me sneak in my camera? Do they allow photography? Do they offer discounts for out of town guests? Can I go on a date with one of the princesses? Why doesn't the snow on the Matterhorn ever melt? Why is it always captain rex's first flight?

Re: Are laptops allowed in Disneyland?

While enjoying POTC during one of our trips last spring, some nimrod in our boat opens up his laptop and starts clicking away. Unbelievable!

Gee, it's gotten to the point that folks can't even enjoy DL without their beloved computer attached to their hip...

Maybe the spiel is going to have to include "no computer use" along with no flashes. Yeah, like they'll follow that rule too!

What's next, internet cafe's in NOS???

He should have added a few other things to that list while he had the chance...
