CompuLock releases cable-lock adapter for MacBook Neo

The adapter clamps onto the corner or edge of a MacBook with a two-part screw construction, providing an anchor for a T-shaped cable lock. The report notes that older MacBook models once had built-in security slots for such locks, but those were removed years ago. The adapters are priced at $70, and the cable lock itself must be purchased separately.

9to5Mac cautions that these locks are low-security devices, designed only to prevent someone from quickly grabbing a laptop and walking off. The author says they would use one in a small coffee shop where the laptop stays in sight while ordering another drink, but would not rely on it to leave the MacBook unattended.
