[UniMacTech] What rights do your laptop users have?

[Mark Dorset]

And, in reply to my own email, I just decided to do a test of the  
adeona system that I'd installed on a machine a few months ago and it  
appears that their service is temporarily offline due to issues with  
the server-side. Apparently will be rectified in the next version of  
the software, but in the meantime, it may be best not to trust it as a  
way to track your machines....
