A professor here at Tech heard of a neat little device in use at MIT to
prevent PC theft. He said that have a little "tilt meter" that fits inside
the system unit and broadcasts a radio signal to a receiver in another room.
If the PC is tilted (I.E. in preparation for being stolen), its signal
changes and an alarm calls the cops to pick up the thieves. Does anyone
know the name of the company that produces this device or any similar
theft protection equipment? I've seen ads for a thing that makes a loud
noise if you unplug the PC from the wall, but we really need something
that will call the police, since at night and over the weekends no one
will be in the building. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
