INTRODUCTION
------------------------
What this nice bit of kit does, in a nutshell, is to act as a secure tether from your laptop to a stationary bit of furniture, for example, a radiator, or desk post. Thus reducing the ease at which the laptop could be ?re-located? when you don?t want it to be!
MUST READ ? To even think about getting this product you must have the correct docking slot for this attachment to fix into, otherwise it?s just a waste of money as you can?t attach it to your laptop. The good thing is that this ?docking slot? (its a little flattened oval shape on the side / back of the laptop with a small unlocked padlock above it.

Advantages: Good quality, feels secure Disadvantages: It doesn't do much, but its not supposed to
I'm off to uni in october, and i'm going to be taking my laptop. I know you don't really think about it, but how many people are actually concerned about having things stolen from their rooms whilst at uni? Probably the most expensive item in there that will appeal to burglars will be the laptop.
All laptops are built with a "Kensington Security Slot" already. Many people don't know it exists. Other people just think of it as a small hole in the side of the laptop. This hole can be the difference between having a laptop after returning from some place and not having a laptop.
The Kensington Security Cable is the best way to secure the laptop. It works simply as a cable tie. One end is looped to itself, so that the other end can be tied into a hole in the table or table leg (or some sort of fixed hole elsewhere) and through this ...
