Heard from PNF, "Hang on Captain, I'll have that emergency checklist as soon as my computer finishes rebooting....  Opps. I seem to have forgotten my password.."

Great idea for non-critical data.  Not so much for emergency checklists and procedures.  I would think common sense would prevail there and a paper copy would still be available.
