Good, basic lock
This is a pretty good laptop lock sold by a reputable manfacturer. It's not for a latest and greatest laptop, but my laptop is valuable to me personally, so it brings me peace of mind.

Very disappointed
I purchased this product (from a store other than Amazon) in June 2008. The combination that I set worked fine a few times and then suddenly stopped being recognized by the lock. I was able to use the lock less than ten times before it failed. I owned it for less than one month before the cable...

Worst lock EVER
This lock is the worst lock ever made, the lock resets itself so you cannot unlock it. To remove the lock you have to cut the wire (super easy) and saw the lock off. In the process damaging my computer. This product should be taken off the market.

Unfortunately, all these bad reviews are true...
I had the same problem - lock "magically" reset itself and the combination I had been using for 1 year no longer worked. Fortunately, I was able to cut it off in 3 minutes with a hacksaw. Unfortunately, I am out $10 for the hacksaw and $30 for the lock. Here are the instructions for cutting...

WARNING! This lock can be maliciously reset!
This and similar models are still for sale in stores, I can't believe it!I've discovered how to purposely scramble the combo from a locked state, so I can believe it would randomly change its combo as well. Targus tech support said they'd pass on the info to HQ but didn't care to take my contact...

Lock autonomously decided "You didn't want that combination, anyway."
I used this lock A-OK for years. On Saturday 2008/09/27 I used it fine twice. When I wanted to unlock my notebook computer from the desk the following Monday, the lock acted as if I entered the wrong combination. I'm baffled. Now I have to cut it off. Will my notebook computer ever be rid of the...
