Ask HN: Do you encrypt your laptop's hard disk?

I use encrypted DMGs on osx, with specific folders symlinked to be inside the DMG, for example:

  /Users/chip/work/company -> /Volumes/enc-base/work/company
  /Users/chip/.subversion -> /Volumes/enc-base/dotfiles/subversion
  /Users/chip/.ssh -> /Volumes/enc-base/dotfiles/ssh
  /Users/chip/Library -> /Volumes/enc-base/Library
  /usr/local/mysql/current/data -> /Volumes/enc-base/mysql-data

I don't imagine its perfect, but I know most of my important and confidential things are encrypted.
