Funny cartoon about Berkeley Professor who lost his laptop

Picture 2-11
Yesterday, I wrote about a professor at Berkeley who delivered a scorching, over-the-top warning to the person who stole his laptop. About 8,000 people have downloaded the video torrent file so far. A lot of blogs have been commenting on the super-advanced anti-theft and tracking technology that Professor Rine says his stolen laptop possesses. This comic strip parody is a hilarious take on the incident.

Reader comment: David Rothschild says: "As I wrote on my blog, an issue concerning this professor and the role he and his much vaunted corporate ties played in denying tenure to a critic of biotechnology, is at the heart of a lawsuit filed just this week, and a controversy over the issue of corporate influence in academia that made the cover of the Atlantic a few years ago."
