Maybe there is hope for humanity?

Fascinating story from The Escapist:
"Thief Steals Laptop, Returns Data on USB Stick"

I really don't know what to think of this. If the guy is so considerate, what's he doing stealing stuff in the first place? On the other hand, I really would want all my data back more than I would want the laptop back if given the choice.

Ah, but times are tough nowadays. Everyone has to do more with less. Pretty soon thieves just won't have the time to return people's data anymore. Someday we'll look back on these days as the good old days, when thieves took the time to return our data. Don't expect this to become a trend! :)
