B@$tards!
The worst part about a theft like this, is the material on the laptop is of no use to anyone else... as such its quite likely that it would be ditched pretty quickly sad.gif

I remember having a CD wallet flogged from my car a year or two back, containing about $5-6000 worth of import only music - most of which was foreign language anyway.
The only reason I had them with me was to take them to a friend to get them backed up so i could keep the originals under lock and key...

Found the wallet in a park nearby a few days later, a couple of CD's missing, the rest shattered and spread around the park angry.gif
