2 Razer prototypes stolen from CES booth

My vote is for inside job taking advantage of disorganization / publicity job, doesn't feel like the sort of thing an opportunist would try to get away with

The cynic in me wonders if this is a publicity stunt. How many people reading that will head on over to the razor website to see exactly what was stolen?

Or am I just getting too cynical?

I would say you're being too cynical.

My company does a lot of trade shows, a few of which I attend. For the bigger ones we tend to hire a guard who sits on the booth all night to prevent any loss of equipment through theft. Even then, we tend to lock away or take with us anything that can be easily pocketed in the evenings between show days.

A lot of the hardware we have available is of little use for the common man, doesnt stop folk stealing and trying to sell for a buck or two. When the products available are things that can be used by anyone really, the problem is somewhat more significant.

And the laptop tracking function - did they bother to activate it?
