Man...that sucks. They stole his Jaguar.

Say what you will about the much maligned Jag - my son and I had countless
hours of fun chasing each other around in the TAG mode of CLUB DRIVE...plus
it had ALIEN VS. PREDATOR...

(sigh.)

Or completely stupid. My friend had his Mac Plus (yes, one meg of RAM)
stolen in 1999. I don't think you can buy much crack for one of those,
although it was a huge loss to my friend who did not have a backup of
the 50 meg hard drive. The thieves also stole his Atari Jaguar and a
bunch of Jag games. Hmm. Were these guys geeks gone bad or just plain
dumbasses?

Very sorry about the Newton theft. At least you did have a good backup,
so it could be much worse.
