NY Burglar Steals Mac and iPod But Leaves Dell Behind By Charlie Sorrel February 27, 2008 | 7:06:32 AM Categories: Apple , Law A New Yorker emailed Gawker with the story of a rather picky pilferer. The housebreaker grabbed only the Apple products in the apartment, leaving behind a Dell notebook: True story. My apartment in ‘prime Williamsburg’ was broken into.
The thieves searched out my [Apple] iPod and [Mac] PowerBook, but the didn’t touch my roommate’s Dell that was sitting out in plain sight on our kitchen table. PS: A kitchen table - suck it Manhattan. Gawker bills this thief as a “Hipster”, but we wonder if this Apple-centric burglar simply knows the market: It’s probably a lot easier to sell an iPod and a PowerBook than it is to fence a brick.
