Is that what the kids are calling "it" these days?

"I lost my 'surface pro' in the backseat of Brayden's Jeep last night."

unlike an iPhone I don't think you can have Microsoft remotely disabled the unit if it's stolen.

Does it have LTE like an iphone? If not, you're fricked

True story, my wife’s uncle left his iPad in a his truck front seat when he went into a gas station and came out to it gone. He pulled up the find my phone app and it was in the parking lot outside a business a couple blocks down the road. Called the police and boom busted the dumbass.

If they have a gps as said get an app op. I bought a laptop lock with like 3 ft of cord you lock around a desk or whatever the summer before I started college. Think I used it like 3 times.

1)Register your device with Microsoft: This is important because it can help law enforcement return your device to you when it is recovered. And Microsoft is more than willing to cooperate with the police.
2)Turn on Find My Device: Windows 10 includes a find my device feature you can use to
3)Consider using 3rd-party tracking software: This will help you track your Surface if it goes missing. Check out this article on tracking software for your Surface for some help with such tracking software.
4)Know your Serial Number: Make sure you have your device’s Serial #, make, and model written down somewhere in your records. This is always good advice because you never know when you’ll need it.
