good.......2003-09-12

A fair deal; the insurance policy is only good up to $1500, but the requirements are not onerous (you register online, and then you must file a police report within 72 hours after theft, you must mail them within seven days.) They pay the blue book value of your computer, whatever that is. The policy is only good for a year, however, and it's a bit of a pain to renew it (e.g., you have to call them after 11 months, and there's a $15 fee, which they reserve the right to raise as much as they like.)

You need to return both keys, and although there is no duty to show them a cut cable or to give proof that you really locked your machine, the police report probably has to check out (i.e., you are only covered if your computer was locked up securely per direction.)

Anyway, yes, it's peace of mind, with a bunch of qualifications.

The cable itself is nice, looks sturdy, and is flexible enough not to be a pain. I'm not sure if I'd leave my computer locked up in a hotel room with it, but for semi-secure locations like a shared common work area, it's ideal.
