Stolen laptops news is all over the internet!

Thursday, July 10th, 2008

a few days ago I have posted about the fact that 12,000 laptops are stolen every week in US airports. These last days I have seen this news posted by every possible blog and article in this niche. Really, I think that everybody was amazed by the high number of stolen laptops, I can not open Google News and look for laptops anymore cause this news appears over and over again under various forms.

This must have been a hit of some sort, the news I mean…

UK workers take their laptops in holiday! So what!? I’ll take mine too!

uk cheap laptops for holidaysUK workers take their laptops with them while in holiday! At least that is what vnunet.com says. Well, what’s the big news, after all? I plan to go to a holiday in a couple of weeks and I also plan to take my laptop with me, so no news here! The fact is that we can not live without our internet connection and computer, no matter where we are and what we do, right?

What I don’t agree with is that over 65% will contact the office while in holiday, well, not me, from my point of view, I go for good! However, I want to stay in touch with my websites while there and with my personal email. For the rest, nope! If you have some kind of smart device, one of those Nokia E Series phones, use them for something else, not to contact your office while in holiday, OK?

The only thing that we should consider there is that report of the 12.000 laptops being stolen every week, because, I guess nobody wants to missplace the computer somewhere while in holiday. It would ruin your holiday AND your days at the office!
