I have an mp3 player that uses 2.5" laptop drives and acts like an external usb 
drive. someone with some knowledge can use a device like that to pop out the 
laptop drive, attach it to a Linux machine, hack the Windows SAM file and get 
the local admin password.  I imagine the fingerprint stuff is linked to the 
laptop hardware, I don't think it prevents the SAM file hack.

>i know they can flash the bios, i know they can turn it on...
>do you not have a password required for login?
