What a thing to wake up to...

Having said that, I will repeat the maxim that hackers (and anyone else
with the tinker's soul) knows by heart:

"What one man can conceive, another can figure a way around."

My response to "ing-scub" - Bring it on :)

Good article ref, BYW. Thanks.

ExtremeTech has more, specific details of Intel's NGSCB plans.

I predict that if this is implemented as planned, NGSCB will kill computing as 
we know it.  Not really worth the trouble to use something like this as a 
general-purpose personal machine.  Trusted by Disney, Enron, DHS, but not the 
user.
