`spike to the portable electronic device
`upon or through the housing;
`
` attaching another end of the
`cable to the substantially immovable
`object; and
`
`
` inserting the protruding end of
`the captive, security rod into an
`opening in the locking device to

`head completely enveloping the locking end of
`the anchor; and
`
`Instruction 4 shows the computer secured to the
