4.0 out of 5 stars seems good., July 11, 2003

By	"mplaktu" (California United States) - See all my reviews

I just got this product, and it seems better than I imagined. As far as I can tell, it is very strong and trustworthy, the only problem I can see, is that it works perfectly until everything is lost. I have no expirience in laptop theft, so I dont really know how much of a detterent this is. I got it to avoid impulse theft, so if I still have my laptop in five years this product has done its job.

5.0 out of 5 stars A laptop user must-have!, August 29, 2002

By A Customer

If you're looking for a security cable to protect your laptop or flat-panel monitor from theft, look no further than the Microsaver!

Almost every piece of computer equipment these days are already equipped with the Kensington signature lock, so with the Microsaver (made by Kensington) there's no worry that you'll order a lock that won't fit or is just too flimsy and untrustworthy to use. Companies such as HP, Compaq, and Dell detail their equipement with Kensington lock slots. Even these corporate giants trust this lock.

I suggest the Microsaver Slim, because these days, laptops are so small that you don't want to end up with a lock that lifts your computer off the desk or have to cram a larger lock into a small travel bag.

Kensington also makes a ComboSaver, which uses the same technology and is equally reliable, except that a 5-digit combo lock can be cracked in a matter of minutes. The Microsaver comes with two keys (both are identical with ID engraved; one for a spare), with a sleek design that looks cool on your keychain, too. :-)

You can register your lock at Kensington's website, so that if you lose a key, you can report to them and they'll send you a new one to match your lock.

Lastly, the cable is sleek and very strong, and will easily support a laptop's full weight. The locking mechanism even has a rubber stopper on the end to avoid scratching your equipment.
