Piece of junk (should be zero stars) [Posted on 2005-06-16]
This is a piece of junk and the description is misleading. The cable is so thin (about the thickness of a thin earphone cable) that I'm confident it could be cut with a pair of scissors. Or maybe you could just bend the wire (it's not really a cable) back and forth until it broke. I have another MicroSaver that has a real cable and would not even consider using this one to secure my laptop. And, to make things worse, the packaging is designed so you can't even tell how thin the wire is until you open the package.
Cable is so thin I cut it in 5 seconds with some cheap pliers [Posted on 2005-06-25]
Anybody with a cheap pair of cutting pliers will be able to cut through the cable in seconds. I know because I just did it. The cable is very thin and is made of pliable steel wire. You could even use household scissors to gnaw through.
Having this lock on is better than nothing because the thief needs to have some cutting tool and then has to deal with the remaining lock that is attached to your computer. However, if you are going to go through the trouble of locking up your computer, you might as well get something with a stronger cable.
Compact & Easy to Use [Posted on 2006-02-28]
Stores as a compact, neatly designed unit. Easy to use and is designed so it is convenient to secure to many locations.

Secret code x Keys [Posted on 2007-05-20]
That is very good, but after I buy I discovered a model with Secret code (without keys). If you will buy one, look the one with secret code.
