> a Kensington slot I think you might need a bit more than that at this price point ...

  At the expected price point it would be nice if it came with a free pied-à-terre in Kensington (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kensington https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kensington). Just a small studio apartment, nothing special.

    You'd need to spent ~£500K+ to get a studio in Kensington these days that isn't a shoebox. One listing is 410K for 280 sq/ft coming out at £1464 per square foot, almost exactly 10x the price per sq/ft we paid for our house a few years ago. So $100K would be £74K which would get you ~50 sq/ft.

      A square (or cubic?) foot would be enough to house it

  A kensington lock in this context is like a sign that says "do not move", which is still kinda useful

    I have a $50,000 Tektronix 'scope on my bench that's Secured with a kensington lock. I am in a small office in a building I own and I rent out some extra space to another 3 person engineering company. One weekend they tried to remove my 'scope from the bench because they had something "important" to work on. They quickly discovered the lock. (The whole thing was caught on camera.) They weren't trying to steal it, they just wanted to bring it over to their side. But the lock did its job! This is the perfect situation for a Kensington lock. I yelled at them the next day telling them if they need a Series 5 'scope they could go rent or buy one.
