Police: Burglar nabbed after turning on Steve Jobs' stolen Macs
Whoever broke into the home of the late Steve Jobs is probably now wishing that a different house had been the target.
The Palo Alto, Calif., home was robbed on July 17 of more than $60,000 in computers and other items, according to the Santa Clara County District Attorney's Office. Kariem McFarlin, a 35-year-old man, was arrested and charged with the crime.
After some of the stolen computers were plugged in, the PCs communicated with Apple servers to perform needed upgrades, according to The Daily. That alerted Apple security people and Palo Alto police, who then traced the computers.
