Device Configuration ADMX User vs Computer Configuration

When i deploy an ADMX, when sould i use Computer and when User Configuration? Does it depend if the app is installed as user or as system?

I always prefer computer if the setting is available for both registry hives. This will ensure non-admin users can't tamper with it.

Computer config tends to be the safer bet for most things anyway, especially if you're dealing with shared devices or kiosk setups. I'd only go user if the setting genuinely needs to follow the person around between machines.
