    can someone say class action suit? So reminiscent of the Kryptonite U-locks...



    BTW, I just got my prepaid label to have mine replaced by them...

    Yeah the info on how to pop Kensington locks has been out for 6+ months.

    Was new for me, maybe because I don't own one.

    Well, I was curious (and bored) enough to try it on my Kensington lock, and it didn't work. The toilet paper roll wasn't stiff enough to hold its shape under the pressure required. It crumpled up as I tried to push it into the lock. Maybe I just don't have the 1447 skillz required...

    Forget all that haxor stuff. If I really want the laptop I'll break the lock out of the case.

    not as easy as you think. have you tried opening an iBook to mod the hard disk? breaking the lock out of the case, you'll have to essentially tear the iBook to pieces
