any thoughts?

Pretty scary stuff in my book

pc's whose bios won't let you install anything but windows.

my work would take this and run - they would love this - even though I dual boot to test scripts etc while I am not on the network.

I guess this is the way microsoft plans on trying to beating linux next since the sco thing isn't working out. make it illegal to install it through the dmca. I just wish the sheeple would wake up and smell the coffee and read a book or something and find out what the heck their government is doing to the technology world.

That was pretty interesting. Even though I have had my head in the ground for a few weeks now I'm still surprised there hasn't been more mention of this as it seems pretty significant. Is this a new turn of events or is it old news and not considered worth reporting?
