The problem with all of these is that they rely on the plastic-ey little
slot on the side. If anyone wanted your Powerbook bad enough it wouldn't
matter whether the lock, cable/chain, wall/desk fastener, etc. was made of
cast iron or hard carbon steel. All it takes is one firm, sharp tug and your
Powerbook is gone!
