Locking down Macbook Air

Just wondering how other owners of the Macbook Air are stopping people from walking off with their laptop?

since the thing has not got a way to use a laptop lock what creative ways have people come up with?

The people in my local applestore were rather useless when I asked them for a suggestion to stop the $3000 laptop being stolen..

Wondering how long it will be before Apple release a new lower case with the ability to at least lock it to a desk to stop it walking off - in the mean time I am going to have to continue to use my PC when I am on the road.

Here's hoping that the next incarnation of the MBA fixes this oversight. As there have been posts on this before I'm sure Apple has taken it to heart. Remember, the MBA is still first generation.

I'm a looking at getting back into DJing, and the MBA would be a brilliant solution, but it's stopping drunk people from just picking it up and running off with it....

i like the lock that's being sold on ebay, but $15 for some bent aluminium! i'll make one myself :P

I work for a financial publishing company.

I need a laptop that I can lock down to the booth when I demo my service.

I use my MBP, however I would like an MBA. I would need to lock it down.
