slim, sturdy, worth it
This lock is very small and sturdy—smaller than any lock I've seen. I'd say the cost is well worth the peace of mind it brings.

Love this thing!
I bring my MacBook Pro back and forth from work to home, and it lets me lock it up while I'm at my desk. This lock simply gives me the peace of mind that I can walk away, and my computer will still be there when I come back. It's slim, and I can still access the cd/dvd drive when it's locked in place. …

WARNING GETS STUCK IN MACBOOK PRO ON FIRST TRY; HAS TO BE CUT OFF TO REMOVE
Upon installing this product for the first time on my brand-new MacBook Pro, I could not unlock it. After spending several hours trying to jiggle it off with the supplied keys, I finally had to remove it with a carbide cutting wheel in order to retrieve my computer. Although it has received glowing reviews on the Apple website, I checked Amazon and found multiple reviews stating the exact same problem as I had with the MacBook Pro. Now my brand-new computer that I spent thousands on is already damaged because of this defective fifty-dollar product. What a disappointing experience from Kensington. …

Do these locks prevent the laptop from opening?
- Asked by Veilan D from Hollywood
- Jul 4, 2011
Answer
From looking at the picture, I think the lock's main function is to make sure that the laptop isn't carried off by someone other than the owner. If you're worried about unauthorized usage, I'd suggest password protecting it, or finding a lock that wraps around the laptop. …
