I bought a backpack so when I'm not using my MacBook I just pop it in
there. If I usually sling it over one shoulder but if I need both hands
I can put it on all the way. In other words, I don't lock it down, I
keep the laptop with me. If you must lock it then you might want one of
these:

where you attach a rigid case to the MacBook Air and that case has a
standard lock slot. You could also check into iAlertU which uses the
MacBook's motion sensors to trigger an alarm and notify you on your
iPhone etc.

Hi all,
so, i went out and bought myself this super cool, super fast macbook air. now,
the reason that i bought this fine machine is because of it's small size and
portability. well, now that spring is here, i am wanting to take it out with
me to coffee shops etc. i live in a city and am concerned about the safety of
using such a machine in an outdoor public setting. i went to the mac online
store and looked up the kensington lock and, alas, it does not work with the
air.
so, here's my question to you all.
do you all take your portable machines out with you? and, if you do, what sort
of security measures, if any, do you take? have any of you had problems with
having your computers stolen? and, if so, what did you do? did you get it back?
i would be extremely upset if i had my machine stolen on one hand yet, on the
other hand, i do not want to be restricted to using it only in the safety of my
own home. if i wanted to stay at home, i would have purchased the less costly
mini.
i look forward to hearing your experiences and suggestions.
thanks much.
Vivianna
