Chances are that's a fairly accurate statement because on firm I used to
work for decided to lock down their mobile force's laptops so they could
not add programs, modify anything and so forth. It created quite a stir
in the company and most people, at least from what I observed, were not
very happy at all. I can say for a fact that our administration time
went way down because of this and while I was not privy to productivity
numbers I feel I can truthfully say that productivity went up.
