Most Mac users who've switched to Leopard will tell you it's a pain in the neck; but Leopard's remote access feature came in quite handy for Mac user Kait Duplaga. When her laptop was stolen, Duplaga turned on the remote access--and used her laptop's built-in camera to snap a photo of the thief as he used her machine. Police were then able to nab the suspect and get most of Duplaga's stuff back.

Kind of reminds us of last month, when someone used an iPhone to track a stolen truck.
