A notebook/laptop computer locking assembly includes a locking base secured to a working surface. The locking base has a first rear wall to receive a keyboard portion of the notebook computer, with a screen portion of the notebook computer in the open position resting against the rear wall. A locking bar is adapted to pivot over the notebook computer screen in the open position, extending across a front surface of the screen portion. This locking bar has a rearwardly extending locking plug insertable within a locking receptacle of a lock. The locking bar is deployed on the notebook computer, thereby preventing removal of the notebook computer from the locking base. Additionally, locking holes are aligned with each other to receive a padlock to lock the locking bar to the locking base.
