I'd have to agree with both Joel and David (I will admit to knowing David). Given the amount of data that's been exposed in the past year via laptop loss/theft, I think it's a much better idea to force all users to process the data remotely, rather than allowing them to store it locally, encrypted or not. Then again, there's a certain class of data that should not be accessed/processed outside of a secured enclave, for any reason. - joat It’s a much later date (and much more data has been exposed).

I can see points for both sides of the conversation, I use a laptop for everyday use, so, more or less it <I>is</I> my desktop. However, I store a majority of my information back at my home "base", however, without the information stored on my laptop, I don't know how I would do it. I have to agree with both of you.
