Does ANYONE who reads this group know ANYONE stupid enough to pack a
laptop
in checked baggage? I'm sure the story is accurate but HOW daft would you
have to be do that?

Absolutely right. I could not imaging placing delicate electronic gear in
hold baggage. I carry everything, radio, minidusc olayer, camera etc, all in
cabin baggage.
