The present invention provides a method for disabling a computing device based on the location of the computing device. The computing device, such as a computer or the like, determines if there is a location restriction for the computing device. This can be accomplished by checking the BIOS of the computing device, and is preferably accomplished during the powering up of the computing device. If so, the computing device determines its location. This can be accomplished utilizing a Global Positioning System (GPS). The computing device is disabled if there is a location restriction for the computing device for the current location of the computing device.
