OK, so 90% of the people that took the CNN poll aren't in favor of putting the ID numbers on the chip. While that is impressive, this poll is as equally staggering - 79% of the people who took another poll said NO to "Does Intel's revised plan for ID numbers on computer chips satisfy you?" cnn.com These polls are obviously biased toward the informed person (What other kind of person would read CNN Online?), but it is these informed people who make purchases on the Internet. They must think that the chance of a more secure transaction isn't as important as being followed around the net. Right? This PSN won't hurt Intel in the corporate market, but it may in the retail market, where AMD resides. Like Jim said, this is the perfect time for AMD PR to jump in. A question for everyone - Do you use a 128-bit security browser? If so, do you think that is enough security? I do (to both questions).
