The anchor point is even bigger! Doesn't fit my ultra thin.

The attachment point is still too big to fit the security slot for my Acer Aspire R5-471T-71W2 or my wife's Dell ultra thin laptop. Therefore it is completely useless for me.

It might work on Macs and laptops with large security slots, but I'm just speaking my…

Pros
  • Cable security features
Cons
  • Some bugs

Pros
  • Computers and accessories

I installed the K-Slot adapter using the included alcohol wipes to clean the surface and the included super glue to attach the sticky pad between the…

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Socket Required
