[QUOTE="BrianLachoreVPI, post: 1214494, member: 193366"] Yikes!! I'm with the others - would be curious to know how they're being stolen. If you have suspicions I'd be tempted to pick up a used one and install something like this [url=http://mackeeper.zeobit.com/security#anti-theft]Anti-Theft[/url] with an open guest account (with no privileges) just to grab a picture of the thief. Regardless - something like this sw seems like a wise investment. I can certainly understand - if you're a student or researcher that it's tough to always have your computer with you. I know I've been spending quite a few weekends on a project - and you have to use the facilities from time to time - and you don't really want to pack up your computer every time it's time to go drop off some coffee. It's a tough call but if you've had 2 stolen :o - I'd say some over protective measures are warranted - including taking it with you to the bathroom, a kensington lock or tracking SW. [/QUOTE]
