In the case of laptops, you can't assume the domain controller will 
always be there, but perhaps the failure happens more quickly in that 
case (in the firewall case, the system may have enough connectivity to 
the domain controller to not give up so easily).
I haven't noticed such a long delay with my laptop disconnected from the 
company network (though I have noticed delays of around 10 seconds).
