    My Asus W3J should be here tomorrow afternoon, and I'm gonna need something to deter theft. Is there a certain lock that works/fits the W3J well? Or should I just order a standard kensington notebook lock?

    They all use a standard sized lock so just about any should work. Just remember to use the included rings which make the connection tight so it's just that much harder to rip the lock out.
