Thieves Clear Out NJ Apple Store In 31 Seconds

theodp writes "An amazing surveillance tape of a burglary in progress at a New Jersey Apple Store shows five perps in masks smashing the plate-glass doors at 2:05 a.m., signaling to the security guard that they had a gun, and clearing off the display tables with the efficiency of a Indy 500 pit crew. The take: 23 MacBook Pros, 14 iPhones and 9 iPod touches in 31 seconds flat. Estimated value, based on average selling price: $46,345. No word yet on whether Microsoft's Laptop Hunters have alibis."

Maybe they stole if for their gang's use.

That FBI Trojan won't work on a Macintosh, it is designed for Windows. Need Macs to be impossible to wiretap and hack into, and store the gang's data on it and their plans.

Plus Gangstas got to listen to music as well, need iPods for that.

Why would any self respecting gang member pay for a computer when they could steal and entire computer lab full of Macs in 31 seconds?

Apple can make a new commercial based on it called "Gone in 31 seconds" and note that criminals are not even bothering to steal Windows based PCs.
