What good is a bio scanner when the theft is looking for a quick buck
from reselling it? Unless the thief or buyer is stupid (and many are)
they'll reformat. In most cases, they don't give a sh** about the data
on it, they want the equipment (and the software) - including in most
of the data theft cases making the news. bios pw and fingerprint
readers will slow them but not stop them.
The better solution for term papers is backups or save to a removable
drive - either USB sticks or memory cards.

If I had a laptop you'd bet that I would keep it secure and close in my sight
at all times. We've all heard the numerous stories of laptops being stolen from
the
VA and other companies. I wouldn't want my term papers to be solen after all the
days of hard honest work that I'd put into them. Bottom line period.
