Shinkansen power outlets

[GridReaper]

I've noticed a convenient little power outlet on the shinkansen and was wondering if I could plug in my PowerBook there?

If it is not for public use will they bust me for it or will they generally just ignore me?

Nah, use it. You're an FG, you can do ANYTHING.

Q: Do shinkansen trains have power outlet sockets for running laptop computers?
A: Generally, no, although the latest 700 series trains running on JR West Hikari Rail Star services do have power outlet sockets.
