Track Your Missing Notebook with Pombo

,----[ Quote ]
| Obviously, Pombo can be useful only if the 
| person who has your notebook actually turns it 
| on, logs into the system, and establishes an 
| Internet connection. Considering that your 
| notebook runs Linux, this is not very likely, 
| but installing Pombo definitely won't hurt.

| My sense is that this software isn't for everyone and that it would require
| more knowledge of technology than the average laptop owner. But for those who
| have the requisite understanding, it might provide some comfort to know that
| they can turn to open-source software that doesn't require going through
| anyone else's servers.

| Plus, you get the benefit of being protected by a Roman goddess. And when is
| that not a good thing?
