Well, one good thing about this thread is that I shall certainly be more careful of things like laptops going through security, so I am glad to have been given a 'shot across the bows.' We take security for granted and think we are safe but we should always be wary and remain vigilant about our possessions, especially ones as invaluable as laptops - for me, the actual cost of replacement would be nothing compared to the loss of information if my laptop got stolen.
So thanks all for a fascinating thread, and I hope that the original laptop that started off this discussion is replaced by the insurance company.
