The receivers are blue and say "Front Row" on them (the brand of the receiver). Last week, a technician noticed that the receiver was missing from a room. In its place was a cardboard box, covered with blue construction paper, with "Front Row" written on it with a Sharpie. We're not sure how long ago it happened; the teacher(s) in the room never noticed. Anyhow. As to the stolen computer. One thing we do is to lock them down so that anyone who get them will have to reset the BIOS password (generally involving opening the unit and messing with a jumper, which can be tricky because some of our units have locks to keep them closed) in order to boot from a CD/flash drive/whatever in order to wipe the hard drive (which they would need to do, because the OS is locked down and would be unusable to them off our network). Not that this helps you get yours back.

Lab manager came early to open the lab and found a Dell Optiplex 755 gone from a classroom. The good thing is we have security cameras throughout the building. Has anyone ever reported these issues to Dell so they can flag the machine for stolen and what has come out of it? -Z.V. _____ This e-mail message (including any attachments) is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
