ABSTRACT:
A lock including a latch bolt securely extending out therefrom and having a pair of geometrically opposed channels defined therein and a wall formed near a distal end thereof, a pair of locking pins slidably received within respective channels of the latch bolt and a pad attached to an outer periphery of a stator of the lock enables a user to laterally insert the lock into a predetermined hole defined in a cover of a portable computer or the like to secure the portable computer. Furthermore, due to the provision of a wire and a loop at a distal end of the wire which is securely attached to the periphery of the stator, the portable computer or the like is able to be securely attached to an object suitable for the wire to be attached.
