there goes personal privacy on home computers... this is a way for both Microsoft and local governments to spy on you! The next thing you know, the world governments will outlaw all computers except the ones with these security chips and MS Windows installed!

hey it could happen  


I totally agree ... this is downright scary. I'd say he (Mr. Gates) is going for world domination. I was wondering if M$ would ever have the nerve to pull a stunt like this, but I guess that's proven with this. But then again, it is the logical next step in the path of the whole security update business...

Btw, the link I posted earlier, I got from Turrican over at AmigaOS forums, just to set that straight - don't want to be accused of link-stealing  :-)

This could go the other way, and give  different OS some leveridge.
I cant believe consumers will swallow this!!
