HIA - Re: " Intel's new chip broadcasts a serial number to the web...and therefor acts like a "hardware cookie"? Who's going to buy something like that? " Anybody AS STUPID AS YOU to believe this nonsense would be a good candidate to buy the "new chip". Look, CLOWN - the new chip contains a unique serial ID and a random number generator - and BROADCASTS NOTHING ! The ID and random number generator are available to be used by software programs which can use them for data security purposes. A user has the option to "turn off" these features. YOUR IDIOTIC mis-understanding of what Intel's new CPU does just reconfirms that there are some pretty dumb whackos out there. Paul
