Hi-

I am looking for a Kensington MicroSaver Security Cable Lock to fit the T42p if anyone has one that they would like to sell me. PM me or email me at dan AT synapticvoid DOT com. Thanks!

How much would you like for it? It would work on the T42p right? I thought they were the same size mostly but on the kensington website it has a massive selection one. Let me know...

Yes, it'll work.

I had to get the Microlock because my black cable didn't fit the Emachines M6805 I had, or the T41P I had. (The barbs hit a wall on the inside of the laptop, and couldn't lock properly)

My black cable does fit in the T42P, so I don't need the grey cable I bought to fit the others.

I spent $20 on it, used only once at a LAN party. How's $15 shipped USPS Priority?

Thanks for the offer but I just found out this morning that my dad (who was pushing me to get one) went ahead and just ordered one for me. Sorry about it. Thanks though-

NecessaryEvil, I'll take it if you're willing to offer it to me for $15!

FWIW my 760ED was locked on a Kensington cable when it was stolen a few years ago. Apparently the thief who broke into our office came equipped with bolt cutters. Still, the cut cable provided proof to our insurers that a theft had occured.

When I sent a letter about this to Kensington they sent me a new cable but only their regrets about the notebook :) I notice that they now include an up-to-$1,500 reimbursement for stolen notebooks that were secured by a MicroSaver.

sorry I'm so late in responding, I was at my girlfriend's for the weekend, and thus, out of town.

yeah, whoever wants it can have it(as long as I get the $15 first!)

necessaryevil<at>insightbb<dot>com is my paypal.
