Uhm.. we're talking about laptops, right? For private usage, to make it more difficult to get access to the "lost" files?!

We're not talking about a military/scientific/top secret or something similar which is worth beeing killed for, right?
Credit cards. I heard some thugs already cut fingers to activate some stolen cards. Might be an urban legend, tough. Do you keep bank accounts on your PC?
For the later thing I guess I'd prefer a gun next to my head make me reveal the password instead of getting my fingers cut, that's true :D
