    That's where corporate computing should be heading, even for laptop users, important data should never be kept on a local hard drive. You'd think after hearing about case after case of laptops stolen/missing with confidential/sensitive information companies would catch on. It doesn't seem that hard of a concept to grasp to me. Maybe they just don't want to spend the $$$ necessary.

    All corporate laptops should have their HDs encrypted.

    We have some people (mainly administrative women) that don't like the thin clients. They CAN'T install all the cute little screen savers, family photos as backgrounds, stream music stations through their desktop and load all the cutesy smiley icons for emails they send out.

    I tell them to frame the family photos, sit them on their desk and buy a radio if they want to listen to music. If they really feel the urgency for those things to be done on a computer, then buy one for your personal use and screw the hell out of it with all that downloaded ****!
    No excuses!
