Traveling abroad with laptops

What would happen if I flew out of the US with a portable computer that has crypto software (like PGP) installed ? Assuming that I had no intention of distributing the software abroad, would I be violating some US export law ? Matt Blaze (?) had written about his humorous experience in trying to do the right thing. It seems that the US Govt. does not seriously enforce its own export policies. But they may start doing so any time. I am sure that today many people regularly fly into Europe with crypto software, without intending to break any laws. At one point, I had heard that some sort of exception was planned for export of crypto for personal use. Does anyone know if this is real or just a rumor ? regards -raj
