I, for one, wouldn't mind if you published the serial numbers here. I'd save
the list for awhile.

With that much equipment loss, can't you convince your management to invest
in security locking devices. I've never seen these used, but I understand
that all macs have this place for a cable to tie it down a bit.

It probably doesn't work against the professionals, but it might slow them
down a bit. (And I thought things were tamer in my home state.)
