Best Answer

If you mean a laptop gets stolen and the thief starts using it, then no. Unless, there is special tracking software and service installed in that laptop. If you mean that a criminal uses their laptop on the internet and the police on the other end wants to know where that laptop is in the world, then yes. That laptop, when connected to the internet, will have a unique ip address for that session. That address can be used to identify what part of the country that laptop is located in. Finding the exact location is difficult, but possible. So, if the thief of your laptop uses the internet and tells you that they are using your stolen laptop while online, you can figure out his ip address and give it to the police.

How long will your mcVolt laptop battery run?

Run time will vary on individual laptop computers, based on the applications being used (i.e. high graphics, games), the number of times something is saved or retrieved from the hard drive and/or CD Rom drive, the memory of laptop, and chemistry and capacity of the laptop battery. A realistic average run-time for a laptop battery is 1.5 to 3 hours. Again, run time will vary on applications being used and individual laptops.
