>I have been following this thread, and I found the number of 10,000 per >month just astounding.
DOT reports for May 2008 that there were 58,407,414 "emplanements" (http://airconsumer.ost.dot.gov/reports/). Divide by 4 to get 14,601,853 per week. So 10,000 is .068 percent or a bit less than 0.7 per 1,000 emplanements or 1 laptop lost per 1429 emplanements. That does not seem entirely unreasonable. My understanding of this study is that it included laptops that were lost and then returned. So the number of laptops that were really lost is probably 1/10 of thst. ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
