   Galima būtų tikslesnę nuorodą? Kol kas randu tik:

"Dell has been embedding Absolute's Computrace [absolute.com] in many of 
their laptops (I'm typing this on a SuSE 10.2 install [roboguys.com] on 
a Dell Latitude D820 that has it enabled). Once you enable it in the 
BIOS, there is no way to disable it without physically removing and 
replacing the chip."
