"Kensington Security Slot" on Vaio PCG-K115M?

[odeSSa]

Hello, I'm a student at Nottingham University (England) and tonight the guy next door to me in my halls got his laptop stolen. And before Christmas the guy two doors down from him got his stolen too. So, logically it's my turn next...

I've been looking at the Kensington Key Locks to protect my Vaio, but I just want to make sure that it has a Kensington Security Slot. I'm pretty sure there's one at the back left, but as I said, I just want to check.

My laptop Model is a PCG-K115M (UK model, i.e. not US)

Here is what I intend to buy: http://www.uk.kensington.com/html/11282.html
Here is some info about the Security Slot: http://us.kensington.com/html/1356.html

Also if anyone has any extra advice/knowledge on these locks that you think I should know, please tell me.

Thanks in advance for your help

My advice, make sure it is left in a very hidden secure place if there is a lot of theiving going about, if they can't find it they can't steal it :smileygrin: also perhaps try things such as removing battery.

Ah, removing the battery. That's a genious idea. Thanks for the advice.

I would still use a kensington lock if you are able, buying a replacement battery still makes it a cheap laptop..
