        Good on them if they do (and I hope so).. but what the hell!? They still put Computrace in their BIOSes!

        Our Partners: Dell | Absolute Security

        Dell and Absolute are partners in security. Absolute is embedded directly into the firmware of every Dell device that ships. So Dell enterprise customers are provided with an always-on, self-healing link to every device in their fleet. That makes it easy to track, manage, and protect devices and sensitive data.
