Theft on college campuses is a real threat for all college
students. College dorms, for example, provide very open and communal living
spaces. If you live in a dorm, you simply can’t have your eye on your stuff at
all times. This means that quick-sell, easy-steal items like laptops are
frequent targets of opportunity theft. So be smart about your computer!
DormCo.com has long been attuned to the needs of college
students, and, given the issue of computer safety, DormCo has recently created
a new product aimed to deter laptop theft: the Iron Brick Safe. The Iron Brick
Safe is a slim,
durable laptop-shaped safe in which a laptop 15” or smaller can
be securely placed and locked up. It’s a safe designed specifically for laptops
and e-readers. After a computer is locked inside, the Iron Brick Safe’s cut
proof connected cable can be looped around a stationary object to ensure the
safety of your laptop.
Currently, the Iron Brick Safe is not yet in production, as
more funding is needed before it can be produced. To raise money for it, DormCo
has started a Kickstarter page. With all the cool rewards that are offered for
contributions made, if you think the Iron Brick Safe would be a lifesaver for you,

Losing an expensive essential like a laptop or a tablet just
about ruins your semester. So what can be done? You can tell yourself that
you’ll always be smart and keep any eye on your trusted laptop. But what if
your roommate leaves the door open when you’re not there? In truth, you’d have
to tie down your laptop to ensure its safety—but that’s not beyond possibility.
The bottom line is, when you’re living in a dorm, there’s no
peace of mind like peace of mind. And unless you have a way of securing your
college computer, you’ll never achieve that peace. Yes, it’s easier to just
leave your laptop sitting there, but your luck will run out if that’s your
plan; you’ll return to find that your laptop has vanished, off to be sold in
some sketchy back alley. C’mon you have more respect for your laptop than that,
don’t you? If so, show it some love by locking it up.
