Method for configuration of notebook computer based on location
First Claim
1. An adaptable computer profile method comprising:
- determining a change in location of a mobile computer;
scoring a current location signature against previously stored location profiles having location signatures to obtain a highest scoring location profile;
determining whether the highest scoring location profile exceeds a threshold; and
if the highest scoring location profile exceeds the threshold,activating computer settings for the highest scoring location profile on the mobile computer; and
sending a location alert to a user of the mobile computer to indicate that a location specific profile has been activated.

Abstract
A method for configuring a mobile computer based on location. The method including determining a change in location of the mobile computer, scoring a current location signature for the mobile computer against previously stored location profiles having location signatures to obtain a highest scoring location profile, and determining whether the highest scoring location profile exceeds a threshold. If the highest scoring location profile exceeds the threshold, then the computer settings for the highest scoring location profile are activated on the mobile computer. If the highest scoring location profile does not exceed the threshold, a new location profile is generated and stored for the current location signature. The new location profile is then activated on the mobile computer.
