 Our laptop users either lock them in a file cabinet next to their desk. Or
if our admin staff see that one is left out then they lock it up in my
office.

I'm wondering what people are doing to prevent faculty laptops from being
stolen on campus.  The obvious answer is, "have them lock their office when
they're gone."  One would think this to be common sense.
Unfortunately, it seems that is not the case.  Since we can't rely on
faculty locking their office what are some other options for physically
securing a laptop?

Thank you,
