Adeona is purportedly the first Open Source system for tracking the location of your lost laptop. It was released in June this year under an open source license. Unlike other systems which require the owner of the lost laptop to log in to a central server this one allows the Internet to work as its homing beacon. It's written by researchers from Uni of Washington and Uni of San Diego.
Works on Windows, Macintosh and Linux. For Mac, it even snaps the photo of the perpetrator and send it to you. I've downloaded and installed. Still reading and digesting the FAQs.
