;-) Personally, I am happy that altering the firmware is difficult.  It's a good thing(C).  Especially, when we entertain the opposite scenario.

:-? Would you really prefer that Microsoft was able to alter your computer's firmware from Redmond without telling you that it was even done, let alone needing your permission?  Now add in the TCPA, and BPL (Broadband over Power Lines,) and we've made possible the Service Dependent Computer.  One that will not even boot without obtaining permission from the powers that be.  Say, a government or corporation.  

:-( That future is not for me, sir, not for me.  I am very happy that altering an AmigaOne's firmware involves lots of human interaction in front of the box itself.
