I use it on my computers at work. I also have padlocks
on them (to prevent access to the RAM) and cable locks
(as are commonly used on laptops). This is because I
work with some thoroughly untrustworthy people, and am
at different places different days of the week (the
computers stay where they are).
That said, it has to be disabled when doing things like
OS updates that require a restart...
