I like this lock better than the combinations. It's faster to get on and off your computer because you don't have to fuss with the small numbers.
This computer lock works great with my laptop. The key takes some trial and error to be turned correctly but it all works out in the end.
This product works great for my dorm room. It's sturdy, easy to attach, and keeps my laptop safe.PROS: Very inexpensive for what it does, simple, durable, many safety featuresCONS: Rubber protector easily falls off, I already lost mine; not a big dealOverall a GREAT PRODUCT.
I admit I don't take this everywhere- I only have it for when I really need it, but in those cases, it works like it should. I use it for my Macbook Pro 13' (2009, and I'm pretty happy with it.
But in an environment like an office or restaurant, it should be fine.The cable is flexible, and nicely coated so that it doesn't scuff surfaces. I'm using this lock with a relatively new HP Pavilion laptop, and it seems to be a very nice product for what it's intended to do -- protect your computer in reasonably secure areas. As others have said, it won't stop a bolt cutter, and it could probably be picked given enough time. The lock mechanism itself works smoothly and seems quite sturdy, and it hasn't scuffed or scratched the laptop even after numerous uses. The only real concern I see: the lock mechanism is significantly bigger in diameter than older locks I've used; so if there's some other connector very close to the security slot on your laptop, you may not be able to use the lock and the connector at the same time.
