Although I've hear reports of anti-theft features in the more expensive models that work the same as this high school's laptops

Reminds me of that action movie "Eagle Eye I watched when it was in iMax cinemas. "The system" was able to eavesdrop and monitor everything people were saying trough microphones of cell phones.

Guess Big Brother's not only "watching" you..
