The MacJury discusses stolen Macs, including the capabilities built into the Mac OS and some third-party software that can give you options to gather information about the thief. Various scenarios are reviewed and opinions on ways to make your Mac a little less attractive and a little more difficult to someone who shouldn’t have access to it leads to a general discussion of common sense security. The panel finishes up with a discussion of the Starbucks WiFi offer and how it could be the start of something big…if Starbucks is listening.
