If I was a thief I would close the screen and then take it. Would the alarm still go off or take the picture of me (clearly) if someone was to do this? Just wondering. Nice video
I recently had Vaio laptop before it broke and my mum surprised me with a macbook, I have no idea how to use one. she said "Its hip and modern. everyone has 1 now a days" My mums 48 and I'm 18. She's more modern than I am. FML
I got a pretty smart idea: always bring earphones, then when you see one and you're ready to steal it. pretend it's your laptop then plug the earphones and run away with it (it will sound in the earphones). thats why I always bring earphones
@maxwellmovies i was clueless back then, when i didnt have a mac, but now, I already have a mac and got this application, and it works great! thanks maxwellmovies :)
@bapestaicecream well, umm, sorry for the stupid idea. Im sayin "sorry" cause I dont want anyone to get mad at me, so when they call me or my ideas "stupid", sorry if I offended you in any way.
@xtremewheelerz if you accedantly moves the computer while inserting the earphones? what then? What about the flashing screen? how to you know the system is armed if the screen is black?
what do you about the photo of you the computer sends by email to the owner?
@xtremewheelerz yes its very very clever.. hmm I wonder if it is an option to do something like move detector using a macbook cam and set it to send photos on your email..its propably to do
This was actually the only thing that prevented me from getting a Macbook - its muggability (a common aspect of life in London, we all have to live with it). Now I don't really have an further excuse to not get one. I love the iSight integration!
nope, its a mac only app. Most pc's dont have a sudden motion sensor, so it would not be able to use that if there were a pc version. Sorry for the bad news :)
The mac laptops have motion sensors to detect when the laptop is falling. This is to Park the head on the hard drive so when it hits the floor, no data loss. It can be used by other apps also. This is a good use for it too. Another app can change your itunes song when you slap your laptop!
woahhh!!! i tried it it really works!! :)
