Report: 637,000 Notebooks Lost in U.S. Airports Every Year

Over 60% of notebooks lost in airports are never claimed by owner

Anyone who has travelled by air with their laptop knows what a hassle it can be. If you forget to remove your laptop from your bag security officials will end up checking it for explosives before you can go on your way.
