To all,

From an article titled You can't forget this password Hint: It's your face, iris, or fingerprint BY PAMELA SHERRID

(notice they misspelled Identix. Also, I'm wondering who the other companies might be... Keytronic, Cherry, some other??)

"PC maker Compaq Computer thinks it has a partial solution to this new bane of modern life. Using optics and software supplied by Identicator Technology, a division of Sunnyvale, Calif.,-based Indentix, Compaq recently became the first big, mainstream marketer to offer an inexpensive fingerprint reader for corporate computer networks. With a unique fingerprint as a password, corporations can be sure that a person logging on to a computer network is who he or she claims to be. In the past five months, Identicator has sold more than 80,000 of the devices through Compaq and other companies."
