hey guys, i am going into college soon and was wondering if anyone knew of any ways to secure down my electronics that ill be taking for use at school and some fun on the side =D. Im taking my gaming desktop, my asus laptop, and my xbox 360 slim. so i was just wondering if anyone has any ideas that can prevent theft and make sure they dont get stolen. may be some sort of tie down.

also dont be smart and just say "lock the door" since i have a roommate and dont trust that hell keep it locked all the time.
 
Pretty much all devices have a lock tab built-in you can use, that Kensington lock metioned above is the standared connection type. You can even diasy-chain them all together with one long cable.

Something like this http://www.absolute.com/en/lojackforlaptops/home.aspx would be great to install on the computers also. They have a $1,000 warranty, although I don't know the details. Could be worth the cost to have the service for a few years while you're in school.
