shock for my school during the holidays

[HotelUser]

My schools brand new, only built last year so yeh, we are quite lucky cos we have loads of cool equipment and the latest things and stuff.

And not ALL our computers are Macs but around 30% of the school computers are Macs.

I'd die of happiness if our board got us Macs to use.

I thought smart water was manually placed on equipment with special pens and had identification numbers. Not a sprinkler type intrusion fluid? I think they were trying to scare people of with that information.

Smart water is sprayed. Banks, jewellers etc use it in vaults, usually with a few second delay so anyone walking inside while the alarm is going gets the full impact Alot of burglaries are solved using this, but you have to find the people who have it sprayed onto them, as it cannot be traced in real time, but each spray water utilizing area has a unique type of water so it's easily traceable.

Good old Crimewatch (H)

We only use macs in our school.

There is not a single computer that has windows.

My secondary school was ram raided lol. The front into the reception/foyer bit had glass doors. Reversed a van into it and stole the big TV. One time about 3-4 projectors were nicked in one night as well.

If they only took the moniters (screens) then they should be fine. If they took both monitor & tower then you should still be fine, on the basis that your school has its own server or any server for that matter

Guttted.... Thats shocking on the school though, they didnt do ANY BACKUPS?

Thats like the first commandment if youre a IT Technician for any organisation! but yeah... bloody shame that, bet its not the first time its happened anywhere either.

I wouldn't even trust the school - especially if there was no backups. I would have had my own work saved on a memory stick.
