Can you do whole disk encryption on these? I have Ubuntu on my laptop and this is the killer feature. It's easy to set up and not only protects your data if your laptop is stolen but means it's less valuable to the thief who has to install another OS (and that's only if you haven't locked down the bios) I've tried to install Ubuntu with disk encryption on a USB flash drive before but found it unusably slow. Has any one tried this on a Chromebook? -- regards ~tdk View this thread at http://squte.com/node/5287#comment-16629
