I think i might have heard about this on the D&D show, but it's a long time ago and I can't remember. I hope you have got a replacement computer by now, and i wish i could help, but I'm sorry to say that my bank account is pretty much scraped these days. I have however clicked a few links, and hoping that this will help somehow (at least it might help if a lot of people follow my example) I see that you have had a little discussion about insurances in the comments. In Norway we have a "travel-insurance" that can be used for things like this. (If someone steal my computer when I'm traveling to work the insurance will cover it.) Do you guys have anything like this over there? I know this is one hell-of-a-late reply, but I was clicking around twitter, DD and noticed your site.

I know it's nothing like a laptop, but when you're in 2nd grade, your backpack truly is your life. Anyway, I feel your pain, or at least I do vicariously through my brother. You should be sleeping in Southern Marin! Bridge tolls would suck but at least Sausalito and Mill Valley are much safer.

Ok, I'll level with you, I have sympathy for your possessions being stolen, I know that sucks, it's happened to me, my suggestion to you though; Get an apartment, some kind of household, get a safe, whenever you don't need your important things, put them in the safe, it's as simple as that. A tech god like you should be able to find a job to pay for the apartment, even if you don't live in the damn thing and want to live in your car (though I really can't think of ANY reason to), it's still storage space. Traveled to the golden gate bridge recently? I hear the view there is lovely. Take care. Tomalonge. x AAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

If they would of taken my car stereo that would of been covered. The only type of insurance that would cover theft of something in your home or vehicle is home owneres or renters, which I don't have for obvious reasons.

Comprehensive? So then ... how much is your deductible? After all, that's what insurance is for. I remember reading that you upgraded your insurance policy to pay for your cracked windshield. Oh, you don't have insurance? Well then. Be thankful that the only life lost that evening was your digital life. You do have auto insurance, right? Comprehensive?
