nathantw666 Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 Well, we gotta chalk this one up for people's ignorance with minidiscs. An unfortunate event took place this weekend where my car window was smashed in and my 4 year old Garmin GPS unit was ripped out. My RH10 Minidisc was sitting right there with a spare minidisc next to it. The remote was plugged into the cassette adapter plug. When I looked in my car I knew my GPS was gone, however, to my surprise, on the car seat on top of all the broken glass lay my RH10! I guess he didn't think it was worth anything. If it was an Apple Ipod I KNOW it would have been stolen. But something that uses discs? Forget it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been a lot of iPods stolen in my area (L.A.) I'm guessing thieves don't know what Hi-MD is so they ignore it. Remember, thieves are attracted to what's popular.

MDGB2 Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 A 4 year old GPS can't be worth much surely. Theives are just plain scum. Keep it hidden, keep it safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artstar Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 Amen to that. Working here in Turin/Torino, I felt comfortable after 4 months of work here until some pickpocket in a pub earlier tonight thought he could pick at my jacket for the company mobile. Luckily, it's a unique ringtone and when I heard it, I dragged the scumbag into the toilets for a lesson in violence. I for one am glad to hear that MD escapes the ignorance of thieves - at least the majority of them anyway. GO THE MD!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
