Another laptop goes missing
Hey, it's been almost two weeks since the latest laptop theft, and that may have been a new record if Armstrong World Industries hadn't reported that a laptop housing personal data on over 10,000 employees is missing. The device was in the hands of a payroll auditor who had apparently locked it up in a car.
