Say you routinely tote your laptop with you. Of course, loaded on the system is your "life's work", contacts, notes, Word files, etc.

Here's a neat product

Fingerprint recognition might not be all it's cracked up to be - as it has been proven time and time again that there are ways around it - bit it's still far better than no security at all. As long as it's set up properly, it works well enough, and it's fairly easy to use. Many laptops now come with built-in biometric security, but what about the data that's not on your notebook?
