Our home was burglarized last November. The thief busted down our front door around noon on a weekday. He took the MacBook (like you, with much of my wife's grad work not saved elsewhere), iPad, jewelery, my Gibson acoustic, etc. He obviously had zero interest in the bikes.

Thanks to the "Find My iPad" app and my wife's tenacity he was arrested and charged with more than half a dozen burglaries in the neighborhood. I was able to recover my guitar, but the electronics were long gone.

It sucks, man. It's a terrible thing to have your home invaded in such a way.
