At first glance, this ruggedized steel box looks kinda lame, but because it bolts to furniture from the inside (using supplied mounting parts), it actually wouldn’t be a bad way to protect your 17-inch-or-smaller laptop in communal living situations.

For its $80, the DormVault also comes with a combination lock, but I’d probably invest in something a little more heavy duty as that looks to be the weakest link in the rig. Neat idea, though, assuming you’re actually able to go about drilling holes in things.
