Laptop Heist Exposes Dark Side of Wall Street Culture The case of Ho Man kit, a former Deloitte IT manager convicted of stealing 423 laptops from his employer's Hong Kong office, raises more questions than it answers about the darker aspects of high stakes trading and corporate culture.

Ho's method of operation was brazen yet calculating – he sold the laptops to a recycler and then invested the proceeds in failed stock options.
