UEFI Palladium reborn Nightmare.

Well ... Apparently the "Windows 8 Certified" tag will , might, lock other OSs out of those PCs - like Linux .. Now the importance of a independent hardware platform like the AmigaONE might be even more important..

I guess the reality is somewhere inbetween Thoms piece and MS statements.. But Im pretty positive it will end up closer to Thom than MS .. Cause what kind of impact will the Linux users of the world have on big OEM PC makers ?? Or mobo makers for that matter... And where does CoreBOOT go ?
