Laptop Security

["Sabo, Eric" <Eric.Sabo () CUP EDU>]

We are wondering how everyone handle security on their laptops. 

Topics like:
        Patch Management on the laptop
        How do you handle access to network resources (file/email/database) - Do you make them use an VPN client?   
        Do you allow them to store data on their laptop?
        Do you use any type of policies for these users? 
        

We are looking for suggestions and ideas.

Thanks in advanced,
