Maclocks.com has moved nimbly to meet the security needs of new Mac buyers, previously coming up with a locking solution for the lock slot-less MacBook Air—a tethering point on a case that connects to the computer with screws. Presented with the same lock slot-less challenge for the new MacBook Pro with Retina display, Maclocks.com has released a similar solution: the MacBook Pro with Retina Display Lock and Security Case Bundle ($80).
The company doesn’t make it clear just how the case connects to the computer, but it’s likely similar to the way it works for the Air. Remove the screws from the bottom of the case, put the clear plastic cover in place, and attach it with longer screws that are included in the package.
This bundle includes a six foot security cable that snaps into the mount in the back right corner behind the USB port. It may not be the prettiest solution, but Retina Macs are hot commodities right now, so locking one up when it’s in public certainly isn’t a bad idea.
