here in DC last week had a story about how many missing laptops there are actually out there these days. "Over the past five years, the United States Department of Defense has reported 60 laptop computers missing or stolen from their inventory," according to Among the others:* National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration: 319* Department of Interior: 240* Environmental Protection Agency: 60* Department of Labor: 57* National Institute of Standards and Technology: 35* International Trade Administration: 30* Department of Housing and Urban Development: 15* U.S. Patent and Trademark: 9Over five years, DOD has only lost 60 laptops?
