[Ti] FW: TiBook 1GHz/SuperDrive US Mac OS ROM file?

[David DelMonte]

I'm curious about the application of these industrial strength 
measures. If my PB is stolen, the only thing I care about protecting is 
two or three personal files.. They are backed up elsewhere, and if 
someone really got them, it'd be not much more than stealing my wallet. 
I'd have to cancel cards etc, and protect my identity.

Maybe (as usual), I'm missing the point.
