Man, I'm so sorry to hear that you know what goes around comes around they will get there’s sooner or later but what I want to know is who was rubbing you while you were asleep I hope it was someone from the opposite sex. :O
Sorry I had to make the joke I hope it made you smile.
It was probably someone you know it usually it ends up that way.

That really sucks, but possessions can be replaced and you are still intact with your health. Too many times the scum that robbed you are not satisfied with ripping you off and do physical harm as well.

Dude your serious? That sucks man. I hope the Police do their job, and find the bastards who robbed you before they sell your stuff off. Hope its just all some sick joke by a friend or something...
You called the police right?

Wow, thats a change of pace huh? Dell's are more reliable than Compaq's or HP so that is what I use. They are cheaper, price wise, but much higher quality in my book. I have had my Dell for along time, and I have never had any hardware problems, only software issues with Windows (Kicks Bill Gates)

Well the Dell was a computer I used for my company that was best for running, my 6.5M item database, and it's one of the best computers I've found for networking. If I didn't need it for work and I just gamed on it, I'd say fark it I'm building one.

Not to ba a Dirk Agian but....
sounds to me wyhteagle like your just a consumer. you need a floppy,
a cord, you run to Office Depo. I have been building my own computers
first was in 1980. (i could have been a APPLE [:D]) there are 2
kinds of systems today, Desktops and Workstations.
Dells,compaqs,Gateways are desktops,made for the consumer, the
mading public. a use 1 year throw away system.
all the systems i build (i need a TV show MONSTER computer)
are workstations (you run for 5 years). its your life
its your money, do as you wish, just a sugestion.

I agree with Psion,
Building a setup is much better, you get exactly what you want at a fraction of the cost, for most computer companies to get the cheap deal they advertise you have to mail in a rebate form, and usually they have a ton of restrictions and time frames attached, I have bought only 2 computers in my life, and didn't like them and started building my own ever since. I enjoy the freedom of picking and choosing exactly what I want in my system.
By the way wyhteagle, I know how you feel, I had the same thing to happen to me a few years ago, except they didn't take my electronics, they took the next easiest thing to pawn easy, my tools, about 20k dollars worth of them. So I know how you feel.

Sounds like you need a good guard dog and your living in a real bad neighborhood.
