Assuming that the problem was a trojan/keylogger as others have suggested here, yea, it seems entirely possible it could be a problem with the office machine and not your new laptop. In fact, any machine that you might have used recently to access your email could have been the culprit.

Also, if it was a trojan/keylogger, are there any other signs that any of your other accounts might have been compromised? or were they just interested in your gmail?
