Requiem for a Laptop

Give eternal rest to my laptop, O Lord. It served me well through many a trying time. That little laptop, ever my constant companion, was a refurb, yet she always seemed brand new. She toiled ceaselessly in pursuit of better outlines and higher Snood scores. She grew heavy as my classmates bought featherweight laptops, but her weight served as a comfort. I lament her loss; yet forgive me Lord, I take perverse pleasure in knowing she was password protected and the sick bastard who stole her cannot disturb her everlasting repose.

R.I.P. Laptop. August 2001 - February 2003.

A friend of mine got a call from "customer support" after hers was stolen, saying her laptop had been recovered and they just needed her password to verify her identity. Needless to say, it was the thief. She didn't give him the password, but never got her laptop back either.
