i can’t get over how many people set their bags and cases NEXT to them in lines at airport or train station coffee shops, or waiting to check in. (on the outside of security)

I keep mine in front of me or between my legs at all times

Maybe even a padded hardcase with a lock option to keep it safe when in the hotel room or something.

I use remote desktop everywere i go.
My notebook (a MacBook Air) doesn’t contain a lot of useful data for people to use, but only contains a couple of movies (to keep me busy while traveling) and a remote desktop client.
I just logon to my work-server at home and can work from all over the world.
Luckily, RDP isn’t a very bandwidth intensive protocol when configured properly, so i worked via UMTS when i was in Portugal this summer and i worked via WiFi when i was visiting the Waldorff Astoria in New York.
No need for carying data around with you, when you can just access it everywhere, anytime.

You left off an obvious one: use a laptop security cable. I use the Targus Defcon CL which is a combination lock. I secure my laptop to an immovable piece of furniture when I leave my hotel room. It won’t stop a determined thief, but it’ll stop a grab and run type theft. Best solution is to lock your laptop in your room safe when you must leave it behind.

Or you could just paste your needed files up there in the clouds where it’s available everywhere.
