if you worried about physical compromise more likely.  like if you travel with 
a laptop probably a good idea.  for a home desktop that would depend, but less 
likely in most cases, because then you got other more important security 
problems then your computer.  

Also i'm not sure but does using a usb boot key affect sys-usb? possibly a 
tradeoff maybe someone else can chime in.
