I do a lot of work on it, but I do it in CVS trees that I commit
and blow away when I'm back to a network connection or I just do
it remotely.
(Most of the development I do is towards a cluster computing project
for which my lone laptop is a woefully inadequate stand-in... but
the same probably goes for most development that ends up on a
monolithic server. Even if you're going to build on a different
machine than the production one, it should at least be a pretty
similar machine, imho.)
It's this presumption that it's even possible for a laptop to be
secure that makes, for instance, Dell's marketing laptops as "Desktop
Replacements" really scary for me as an admin.
