I'm probably covered through work.
Jut a lesson to be learned, though....
- backup all your stuff
- password protect everything you can
- encrypt what you can
Losing a $2k laptop is bad enough. Thinking of the thousands of emails and personal data that's on there is horrific.
One more:
- don't leave valuable items sitting in plain sight within your car.
So many of my users have been the victim of this (at work). Thieves see an easy "smash and grab" and they won't think twice about it. The same goes for iPods and GPS systems.
I'm always reminding my wife of this when she leaves her iPod sitting out. It seems so simple, but many people are just too trusting.
Sorry to hear about your loss.
