Steps to filter group policy to apply only to laptops

What are the steps to filter a group policy so that it will only apply to laptops and not to desktops or servers?


The length of time after which a screen saver kicks in on laptops must be different than the length of time after which such a policy applies on desktops.


What are the steps to filtering the group policy so that it will only apply to laptops?

The easiest way is to put laptops in a different OU and then apply the policy to the specific OU

I'm not able to put the laptops into a different OU.

This filtering needs to be done through hardware or device filtering that detects that the computer is a laptop.

How can such filtering be done?
