I manage about 50 laptop toting salesmen. My philosophy in the past 
has been they are my customers. They are to be good at selling not 
computer care or understanding how it works. I am changing. If you 
cannot care for the most basic security needs then keep your dam hands

off the laptop!

Or give them only the access that they need to complete their job:
        "I have this great new computer for you. It has lots of upgrades
and neat things. It is running something called GrannyX.".
