I HAVE seen stock 5170s with a cam on the lock.

LOCK it??
I've never seen a 5170 with a factory case-lock, but I don't doubt
that there was a market for them that was filled by IBM. Locking
things back then was very popular--I used to have a Mitsubishi
workstation monitor with a key-lock on the adjustment drawer--and of
course, no key. Or HP Vectras with very difficult to defeat case
locks...
Has anyone tried the famous Kryptonite bike lock-Bic pen unlocking
trick on a 5170 case lock?
