File Vault on Mac does work but it is not centrally managed which is a requirement for many. We use PGP on our Macs which is not the greatest but works and meets the security requirements.
I just ordered a bunch of T430s-es and they have a Thunderbolt port combined with mini-DisplayPort. Best way to really find out what they have is to look up the exact model in the PSREF documents. http://www.lenovo.com/psref/pdf/tabook.pdf ___________________________ Robert Rosen Senior IT Advisor National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal Diseases National Institutes of Health US Department of Health & Human Services Tel: 301-451-6525 E-Mail: [email protected] NIH ...
