Just curious about what people might be using for security lockdown on 
public access laptops?

We don't have any public laptops circulating currently, but I see them on 
the horizon.

Windows SteadyState seems like it would work just as well with laptops as 
desktops.

(http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/sharedaccess/default.mspx)

But I don't have any laptops to try it on.

Any experience, good or bad, with SteadyState + laptops?

Or, experience with any other laptop lockdown options, Windows or Linux?
