Enterprise Full Disk Encryption

Check out the truecrypt site. They have a note on corporate solutions  
where you can store an encrypted master of the header files with a  
master passwd for users and they can apply their own passwd. So if  
data is corrupted or user passwd is lost you can reapply the master  
header to the volume and hopefully avoid big headaches. The user can  
then set a new passwd.

It's been awhile since I looked it up and my wording is bad cause I'm  
on my iPhone walking.

If we did end up using TrueCrypt, users would be assigned static
passwords (which the IT staff would have stored in and encrypted
file). That would at least eliminate people forgetting their password.

Securitycatalyst.org/forums has a few topics on it.  I know several  
of the
people there have implemented or are implementing FDE on several  
(50+)
machines
here is one of the threads

I'm getting bids from HP and Dell on laptops (about 100). Does  
anyone
have experience with their respective full disk encryption  
solutions?
The reps I've talked too (from both companies) can't really give me
the technical information that I want, and the information on both
websites is outdated (2007).
I've also considered going with TrueCrypt (I have the most  
experience
with this and it's free, but there's not a good way to centrally
manage it).
Your thoughts?
