Kensington 64068E Review by mademoiselle_josephine_clementine_pilgrim (1550 N. Fern Circle)
Is that Kensington is an EXCELLENT COMPANY that KNOWS HOW TO CARE FOR ITS CUSTOMERS.
I have a Mac iBook and I have had no trouble -- maybe there is just some incompatibility with the 13" model people are complaining about...
BUT, I will not disclose the nature of my problem with my old cable lest people try to take advantage -- lets just say that *I* did something really stupid. Kensington REPLACED my cable for free, even though what happened to it was TOTALLY MY FAULT, and they knew it!!
I just think that a company that cares about its customers this much deserves to be acknowledged and deserves 5 stars!
Also, here is something I learned on the Learning Channel back when they showed studies and not just Choppers and people decorating their neighbors' houses with plywood and spray-paint...
There was a study where, before people got up to walk away from their stuff, on beaches, in libraries, in cafes and bars, etc., they asked a complete stranger to keep an eye on it...then they sent in someone else to lurk around the stuff and maybe try to take something. In *EVERY* case, EVERY SINGLE CASE!, the stranger got up to defend the things they were asked to watch. There is something about entrusting your stuff to another person that makes that person take your side and feel a responsibility to back up their promise.
Think about your own experience...isn't there something that makes you extra-vigilant when someone says, "Hey, can you watch my stuff?"
So DO lock up your computer with the Kensington, but then, just ask anyone to also watch your stuff for you and if they say they will, they will. Then you have 2 deterrents to theft. Nothing is ever going to totally protect your computer from theft, but this cable and other humans work pretty darn well.
Kensington 64068E Review by Cletus Van Damme (Edmond, OK USA)
The cable itself is OK, but the lock is very poor quality. The internal mechanism on my lock unscrewed itself from the body of the lock after about six uses -- and no, it was not tampered with, or at least the anti-tamper mechanism had not been activated. This product is worth about $5 and does nothing more than avoid tempting honest people. I'm sure the proper tool would pop the lock out of the security port in two seconds.
Kensington 64068E Review by E. Goldberg (Seattle, WA)
I just bought one of these at our University Bookstore, and returned it a week later.
Specifically:
* I used it on my 13" MacBook, it pulled and warped the exterior plastic each time I locked the computer, enough so that it wouldn't surprise me if continued usage of this lock would permanently damage the MacBook casing.
* A store employee who recommended the product tried to show me how to "correctly" use the lock. Not only did it warp the plastic for him, too, but to his apparent surprise, it also took him several frustrating minutes just to get the lock on and off. He indicated that the quality appears to have dropped considerably from the Kensington unit he had previously purchased.
Thus, I cannot recommend this product for 13" MacBook users. Users of other computer models may wish to exercise caution when purchasing as well.
