    Why do these people leave such expensive items in their car??!! Also, why would you even rist parking downtown monday night. That is just asking for something to happen to your vehicle.

    Well, ArmyBrat25, I can't answer for others, but when I have my laptop in my car and go out for a meal, such as after work, I don't take my laptop into the restaurant with me. It's in my backpack, in the car. The backpack is not usually visible to the casual observer. Of course I never leave it in the car overnight.
