The colleague of mine started to look around on how to lock screen of Mac when he has to leave the computer. It is sad that there is no such easy solution for Mac as there is for WinTels. However among many interesting solutions there is one which is very intriguing - to use bluetooth enabled device to lock/unlock computer for you.
Here is a link describing the solution for Ubuntu:
