Kash,
Tell me. as long as I have this, 128bit encryption, why do I need my CPU IDed?
c2net.com
If you what to learn a little about US laws on encryption just try to DL one of these products. Eventually it asks you where you live and if it's Iraq specifically.

Kash,

I disagree with your analysis on this Scumbria

I think our comments agree completely. I said:
Online security issues for the average user can be handled in software

You said:
Intel should have inrtoduced this technology into it's server/workstation class CPU's such as Xeons and forgot about it for the general consumer market.

We both said that this level of security is only needed for large transactions.
