Anyone  really

like a particular kind?


My right arm. If it's someplace it's vulnerable, it goes with me.  
Cables can be cut with $2.99 snips from Ace hardware and are pretty  
thin protection. Someone, (Kensington?) sells an alarm that fits onto  
the security port and will sound if the system is jostled.

Re: security cable

2005-09-02 Thread John Roberts
I've had a Kensington cable for 4 years and have had no problems (I  
don't know that anyone has ever tried to tamper with it). It has a  
cylinder lock that's superficially like the one on my old Kryptonite  
bicycle lock that was discovered to be openable with a ballpoint pen.  
I don't know whether the cable lock has the same vulnerability.


Bear in mind that laptaps are frequently stolen from vehicles. It's  
very easy to smash a window and grab.


John P. Roberts, M.D.

I've always like the Kensington brand.  On ebay they go for around $5 and up.

Later...Howard
