        Adeona is the first Open Source system for tracking the location of your lost 
        or stolen laptop that does not rely on a proprietary, central service.  
        This means that you can install Adeona on your laptop and go — there's no 
        need to rely on a single third party.
        What's more, Adeona addresses a critical privacy goal different from existing 
        commercial offerings.  It is <EM>privacy-preserving</EM>. 
        This means that no one besides the owner (or an agent of the owner's choosing) 
        can use Adeona to track a laptop. Unlike other systems, users of Adeona 
        can rest assured that no one can abuse the system in order to track where 
        they use their laptop.
