I have locked down the Terminal Services Desktop using Group Policy. The
only problem is that some users have laptops and the Group Policy is too
restrictive for their requirements. the Group Policy contains only settings
in User Configuration and is attached to an OU containing all users in
thecompany.

Is there a way I can have these settings apply when they are connecting to
the Terminal Servers but not apply to their laptops without giving them a
local profile on the Laptop?

Have a look at this KB article:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;260370
This article describes in "Method 2" the usage of the "Loopback Processing Mode" which would - as far as I see - the thing you search for. Just have a look at that article and section "Method 2".
