My guess is they were after the one-of-a-kind giant, novelty Retina MacBook Pro.
Isn't there a remote kill switch that they can enable once the stolen S/Ns are hooked up to the internet?
Steve would never have allowed this
Those things are ugly and you cannot put them in if your store is on the street or in some malls.
We had some iMacs stolen from our school, and we called Apple to see if they could be located or remotely killed. Apple said they didn't have that ability. As for iDevices, it might be a different story.
Cannot believe these Apple stores do not have car stop barriers (giant metal/granite poles that stop cars from going into store fronts)?
I sure miss the down button

Insurance isn't free or cheap.
Personally, I don't mind those comments. They're made for humorous purposes and I have a sense of humor so I appreciate them. Maybe you should grow a sense of humor so that you too can have fun on this site.
Getting old now no?
There are lots of good looking car stop barriers.
And why would you need them in a mall? Do you expect to see many cars come barreling into a 2nd story mall Apple store.
These barriers are to stop EXACTLY what occurred...someone ramming a car into a store either intentionally or unintentionally (accident/health condition while driving).
And yes you can put them in on sidewalks and stores that are on the street. Lots of stores have them.
Like I said, guaranteed Apple will 'rethink' this and you'll see some of these things going into more high risk neighborhood Apple stores

Even though they say that, I don't believe it.
I don't know why Apple can't remotely brick their goods, they would know the identifiers. Why not have a service where owners of a stolen iPhone/iPod/iPad can just brick it... No point stealing something thats worthless...

Guaranteed they will have them in front of the store by the time it reopens.
Best Buy has them in front of most of their stores.
Temecula PD epic fail, they have an office like 50 yards from this store, where were they?
Idiots! The iPhone 5 isn't even out yet!
