Hi Chris.
Pointsec and similar hard disc encryption isn't something you'd expect to
find on a personal laptop that you'd pick up from PC World. It's more for
corporate business laptops where it's vital that if the laptop is lost or
stolen, noone can get at any customer account or sensitive business data.
Regards.
