A thin client laptop! If the laptop is confiscated you and your company are only out a few hundred dollars in equipment costs....the really important stuff...your data is safe and secure. The applications are fantastic! Replay the stolen laptop of the VA employee..instead of millions of SSN being stolen...the loss is a mere few hundred dollars.
I see this as another great innovation by Sun and it's partners. Tackling issues at the cutting edge.
