Don't Get Your Mac Jacked – iAlertU

April 9th, 2006        

What? A laptop alarm system instead of car alarm system? This is a remote controlled motion sensitive alarm system for the MacBook Pro. iAlertU will be releasing the beta version of this software soon.

Utilizing the built in motion sensor technology, iSight camera and the infrared remote control your MacBook Pro can now be turned into a high tech alarm system. iAlertU is aimed at being a tamper/theft deterrent system for those times when you need to step away from your work momentarily.

I fail to see the use of an annoying beeping noise to prevent someone from stealing your laptop. If I stole it I wouldnt give a crap if it beeped or not. Just run away with it and its stolen. Besides a security system for a laptop would be better if it shocks the thief like a stun gun or uses lasers to shot at thieves. A car cant be grabbed and stolen but a laptop sure can
