The Macintosh Portable also has this feature. Does
anyone know of, or
have, an actual locking mechanism that was made for the Macintosh
Portable?
Does the portable's lock slot differ from either the Mac desktop units
(like the Plus) or the laptop units (which some had a small hole that a
keylock would fit into).
I do have the lock clamps for a Mac Plus, and I believe it was the same
as for any other desktop mac. Its a little metal bar that slips into the
lock slot and snaps behind the tabs built into the case so it can't be
removed. Then a cable slides thru the hole in the bar and is wrapped
around and locked to any secure object.
I used it to secure one of my Mac Pluses when my wife (then GF) borrowed
one while in college.
IF this is the same as for the Portable, then I have at least one lock
plate still (it should still be in the keyboard that was used with the
plus), but I'm sure I no longer have any packaging or documentation for
it, and I may or may not still have additional plates or the cable.
