You don’t need the laptop itself. You can use Acronis or Macrium disk imaging software to create an image of the disk.

Once you have an image you can look at it’s contents.

You can even run the image as PC or Mac virtual machine.

I only hope that the good guys made a disk image before the laptop grew legs and walked away.

The computer repairman, that gave the laptop to the FBI, was smart enough to protect his a$$ by making multiple copies.

Rudy Guliani has one, Matt Gaetz has one, I forget who else.

The CCP has one.

They have put videos, taken from it on the net.

Hunter raping underage Chinese girls.

From a criminal prosecution aspect, the original evidence is missing.

The defense will argue that the copies are fakes.

Yes, the good guys did that, and so did the bad guys…
