Many of us think that it is safe to leave our laptops unattended for even a few minutes. Some of us may be in a coffee shop and will leave our computer behind while we use the restroom or order a coffee.

Although it may seem inconvenient to have to pack up our laptop and take it with us, it is a small precautionary measure in comparison to replacing it.

Leaving your computer unattended is never a good idea. Your laptop is an expensive piece of equipment that has a high resale value, which is why thieves are drawn to them.

You should make a conscious effort never to leave your laptop unattended. Yet, even with the best of intents, your laptop could be stolen. This is where laptop insurance comes in — you get protection for theft for a few pounds per month. The cost is less than the cup of coffee that you would buy at a coffee shop.
