Instead of locking your laptop, Belkin wants you to strap its alarm to something secure—then if your laptop is swiped, the alarm will sound. I don't get it. Why risk someone grabbing your laptop and muffling/destroying the alarm when you already are going to have to find a place to lock the whole contraption up? Just use a regular lock.
It's $25.

Perhaps it's intended for a "belt AND suspenders" defense-in-depth style use. If someone takes a pair of bolt cutters to the cable on your regular lock, the alarm is in place to let you know about it.
