[luau] Be on the lookout for Stolen laptops

nah the issue is the stuff on the machines....like the working notes for
magazine reviews, contact info, etc....

The request is for folks to keep an eye out for them since someone is going
to have to regen those laptops. The other point is that this is a black eye
with national press...not something that would help high tech development in
Hawaii.

So my request is just to keep eyeballs peeled so that perhaps the thieves
may be caught instead of continuing to give Hawaii a black eye.
