Yeah when you tell the Beaverton police that you are reporting the theft of a 15 year old computer motherboard you'll have to wait 5 minutes for the laughter to die down before continuing...
Theft is theft. They won't laugh, but this report will likely be filed immediately with no follow up. However if everyone starts filing a complaint, eventually they will have to take notice. Also an A2000 motherboard would be hard to prove value, but an Amiga 4000 and other Amiga related goods would not. I think anything over $400 is usually considered grand theft.
The Palm Beach County Serriff's office took it very serious when an auto repair shop stole the emblems off the hubcaps on my 1986 Ghetto Sled.
