I'd fire anyone having a company spreadsheet or document on their
laptop and not in the cloud. Or company email on their computer (POP
rather than IMAP). It is just too expensive and dangerous.
LANL, for example, mandates full disk encryption on hard drives. Hard
drives are cheap. I'd much rather put up with this than not to be able
study a paper that was stranded on an IMAP server. But IMAP or POP is
not the issue, the issue is connected vs. disconnected. Wireless is
not everywhere and where it is available, it is not reliably high
bandwidth and low latency.
