I've read a couple of stories like these and still wonder if thieves tend to format the hard-drive or not.

To avoid that, I created a "honeypot" account which is automatically logged in on my machines (OS X), so at least the machine seems usable without reformatting (and Prey remains effective).

Any other similar tips or things to take care of to secure a Mac in particular?
