here's a software invented by Orbicule tat a application is installed in ur mac, when ur u realize ur mac is stolen, they can trace ur macbook back
n its works anywhere in the world
cost around 49USD per comp
Education discount is applicable for students
and Cheaper price if u purchase multiple licenses for coporate

Interesting. Any one using this at the moment? I might opt to get it.
My only qualm is now effective are our ISP's and Police in handling a theft case like this. But with pictures of the user and location provided by the ISP... our inefficient police may be more motivated to hunt it down.

Got a question, if i change my Macbook's harddrive to a larger capacity, i.e. from 120GB to 500GB, will it affect it's performance or battery life?

how would we know that? you simply come in and just throw in a bunch of used stuff and expect people to just take it at face value and buy from you? Despite the tag no selling in this thread why thats very responsible of you i might add. You cant even take queries and answer them properly that proves how established you are, plus before one becomes a serious buyer,one is a sceptic buyer first.

it'll improve your overall performance as there is tons of virtual memory space on your HDD for mac osx to run smooth. It'll only affect your battery life if its a 7200RPM which directly causes heat and vibrations. Stick to 5400RPM

make sure you adhere to the mod rules here, eventhough your efforts are not to deceive anyone but posting up specs with no additional details of procurements wont suffice as a self explanatory posting,plus you should have opened a thread under garagesales/laptop. Surely theres proper channels to sell your goods and good luck with that. And if people are looking for your goods they'll surely find your thread appealing since tons of prospective buyers are roaming the sales thread.
