I’ve seen some pretty flimsy laptop locks in the past. But Kensington’s MicroSaver DS Keyed Lock for Ultra-Thin Notebooks definitely doesn’t fall into that category.
The Kensington MicroSaver DS lock just feels rugged coming out of the box. It’s designed for even the thinnest of laptop computers and has a sturdy, keyed lock that Kensington describes as “nearly impenetrable.”
It attaches to notebooks through the industry-standard Kensington security slot found on just about all models. Then, it can be easily wrapped around a piece of furniture or other object to keep your laptop where it belongs. The five-foot cable is made of carbon steel,which keeps its strength in a thinner design.
The T-bar locking mechanism is patented. The lock head also pivots and rotates for easy setup. Two keys are included.
This is the ideal lock for travelers who may need to step away from a hotel room for a few minutes or others who are using their computers in coffee houses or other public places. Consider it an inexpensive insurance policy, because losing a laptop is expensive, not to mention data-security worries.
The Kensington MicroSaver DS Keyed Lock for Ultra-Thin Notebooks retails for $49.95, with discounts available from Amazon. Kensington offers a lifetime limited warranty on this lock.
The Kensington MicroSaver DS is the kind of serious laptop lock that can keep travelers and their computers from being separated.
