If you would like I can take them home (either the laptops or the drives)and 
nuke the drives and bring them back or keep them in my workshop until we can 
take them to be sold (I actually cleaned up so I have room). I have several 
laptop hard drive adapters so I can wipe the drives 2 at a time on my workshop 
PC. I could swing by the warehouse tonight after the LUG meeting.
