ALERT! Please Help

One-of-a-kind custom pink iBook stolen!
On Sunday night a person (or persons) burgled Nora's house in South Minneapolis. Besides taking purses and other such things of value, her custom iBook was taken as well. She'd really appreciate having it back for her final year of college. She's already contacted the police and most pawn shops but it might take more than that so we're hoping the power of the web can assist us. Spread the word if you can. If you see this very unique Mac lurking around anywhere (ebay, pawn shops, etc), please contact us.

Jeremy, you are the best brother-in-law a girl could ask for. Besides being on the lookout for a pink ibook, the public should be aware that the criminals hit a new moral low and also stole my piggie bank. And that bitch was full of quarters, too.

A Stolen piggy bank..that is low...but to nick a Mac?????? And a pink one at that?
Bastards!!!!!

Now I know why girls only want boyfriends who have great skills. You know, like nunchuck skills, bowhunting skills, computer hacking skills...

You know, I just heard a piece on MPR this morning about laptop theft being the new low for thieves. They described it like stealing someone's diary, but much worse.

You may want to think about stopping at the local Apple Stores to let them know about this. Someone with a new pink iBook may be looking for a nice laptop case or pink iPod mini to go with it.. may even stop at the Genius Bar to ask a few questions.

I think I found your iBook being sold on eBay:
