Just as you have to keep a book in your physical possession to guarantee it does not get written on, soiled, or destroyed, physical possession of the laptop will always allow malicious individuals to defeat its security. So ''trustworthy as a book'' and ''secure as a book'' are excellent goal statements but they do not equate to ''zero time worrying about security''.
