Though it is specifically relevant to the hotel across the street
from ours, you should still stay aware.

>Please communicate in all your meetings for attendees to be aware of their
>computers. We had another computer almost stolen this morning (and one
>stolen yesterday). These thieves are professional and will enter the rooms
>with people standing around and pack up a computer as if they are an
>attendee.
>
>Meeting rooms with doors adjacent to hotel exits are particularly
>vulnerable.
>
>All meetings on the Plaza level at the Hyatt need to be especially diligent.
