damn thieves!

so my iBook got stolen while I was waiting for a plane at Schipol, I'm pretty miffed about it. But luckily I have various backups of the machine.

Had a password on the machine but they took the Leopard DVD so they could reset it, stole my power adapter too but left the UK plug for it.

Haven't lost too much but the loss of the hardware and disruption it causes me as I've got uni coursework to do is a bit of a blow.

Anyone have advice or kind words?

Yeah it is really rubbish

Don't think I'm insured for travel, my mum says she will buy me a new machine though.

True true

Bought the machine now, should arrive next week

Nah, in all seriousness though its times like this I like to embrace ignorance for a moment and believe some Karmic force will exact your revenge on them.

I would hope so :mad:

How did it get stolen? Out of your luggage or your carry-on bag?

Yeah, how?

I would never put anything valuable in the luggage, and never leave my carry on out of my sight.

yeah learned my lesson now, besides I had a rucksack and you can only have only one item of hand luggage a I had to put it in my suitcase unfortunately
