What a bad day it was. I went into the gym to workout and someone opened up my truck and took my new Chromebook. The one I just won in Dec from SD. Crying I always lock my doors. But I have no damage to the doors. Did I forget and leave them unlocked? That would be so unlike me. The cop said that it is possible that they were able to jimmy the locks without leaving any damage to the door. Sadwalk

Sad to say no..
My laptop is now going to have one after this. Also I'm not going to be a dumb ass and leave it were it can be seen.

I don't know much about the chromebook, but on an android phone you can push a tracking app to the phone through the google playstore - even if you're not holding the phone (as long as the phone is powered on and connected to wifi/3G/4G).

That's of course assuming the person didn't sign into their own Google account.

Speaking of that my niece had her Kindle Fire stolen and the thief racked up over $300 in movies and apps on my sister's Amazon account, so you might want to change your Google Play information.

FYI Amazon without blinking gave my sister a refund of all the erroneous charges. Smilie Say what you will about Amazon.

It was only $250 so it wouldn't be any good with my deductible. The gym will have a look at the tapes in the morning.
Why are they waiting? It seems like they'd take a look at them immediately. It can't be good for them to have thieves in the parking lot.

I bet her deductible is higher than the cord and chromebook.

That's what you get for winning... If I had won the Chromebook instead, it never would have happened to you nod
