I'd also recommend that you take a laptop that contains nothing you
care about.  Since if you do get hacked you won't lose anything of
value.  I believe even Defcon's website recommends you bring a freshly
installed computer to save you from the hassle of losing things.

Certainly make backup's before you go. :)
