Very easy to install.
The software was very easy to install and the map locating feature looks impressive. But like insurance, the real purpose is when or if your laptop is stolen, can you recover it or protect your data and personal information from being accessed or stolen? I guess the only true test of this is when it happens. With the cost of high powered laptop computers sometimes going well over $2000 and having personal data on it that could be detrimental if in the wrong hands, this protection seems like a cheap and simple method to assure someone of being protected in some fashion.This program seems like an excellent concept and an added aid to recovery in case of theft as well as an added means for capture of the thief and identifying your property.

It's insurance.
04/13/15. I added a total of seven years to my new laptop as by the end of that time the machine is obsolete anyway. While the unit seldom leave my home, it's just insurance. Absolute offered a good price for the final four years ($49.00). It's just insurance, nothing more. Hopefully I'll never collect.

I like the fact that if I don't use the computer ...
I've used the product on a previous laptop. I like the fact that if I don't use the computer for a month I get an e-mail complaining it hasn't checked in.Luckily, i haven't lost one since I started using the product.

So worth it.
After having two laptops stolen (one from a car & one from the house), I decided that we need to get this. With any luck, we won't have to test their product.

One Less Worry for Laptop Security For 3 Years
Pricey but worth it!Protection is a necessary expense for portable items.Better safe (with a little less pocket change) than sorry.

Awesome
It installed very easy. Registration went smooth. I've also read independent stories about people getting their laptops back. I feel a lot better about my son's laptop at college.

Pretty much useless
Lojack for Laptops seems like a good deal when you buy it and your computer hasn't been stolen, BUT don't be fooled. I installed Lojack for Laptops because I figured it might be smart to have since I was going to college in the fall. After my computer was stolen out of the library, I activated the software within minutes of my computer being taken from the desk, hoping it might still be connected to the internet but unfortunately it was never found. After I didn't hear back from Lojack in almost a month, I looked into the software a little closer. If you have a Mac, all a thief has to do is wipe your hard drive and, as long as he doesn't connect to the internet before doing so, he is off free and clear. So, essentially, if a thief is looking to pawn off or sell your computer, he/she is going to wipe the hard drive one way or another and you, like me, will be screwed. If you have a PC, its a little different because the program will stay in the BIOS of your computer and you may still have a chance. However, DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT if you have a macbook. Now I need to buy another macbook pro and, to add insult to injury, I wasted $100 on a security product that didn't deliver. Save yourself the money and don't make the same mistake that I did.
