Thanks for that good advice, Joseph.

I know that you're right, that it is good to keep security
locks and features, and I will when in public settings.

In my application, however, when my wife and I are the only
ones using our laptops at home, and we just close the lid
between uses for the power and heat saving benefits, it's a
lot more convenient to just open the lid and resume use
without having to enter passwords every time.
