Sounds like someone with mental problems - given that most computers and
printers don't have captive leads.


No, it's quite normal when computer kit is nicked.
Maybe not in the case of a domestic one-off, but when
multiples are nicked from an office, they always just
cut through all the cables.


Any guesses as to why? Unless it's for scrap that sort of thing will
reduce the resale value - even at a car boot sale, etc.
