Installing a cable lock
To help to protect against theft, an optional cable lock can be installed to secure the
computer to a desk, table, or other fixture. This type of cable lock also
automatically locks the computer cover to the chassis. The cable-lock latch on the
computer accommodates the same type of cable lock used with many laptop
computers. Cable Locks can be ordered directly from IBM. For more information,
see Finding options from IBM in Access IBM.
