The relevant
part is that there was a bunch of stuff which I left with
them to ship back - mostly fairly indestructible stuff like cables and
such, but including some three or four more of those laptops. When
that stuff arrived, it proved to have been just tossed into a box and
shipped. Box not even close to full and no packing material at all.
The only laptop in working shape was the one I brought back with me.
(I kept the rest as parts machines....)
That's just plain old stupidity. Any of the shipping companies will
tell you in no uncertain terms not to do that, if you would care enough
to ask.
