I do see how. While M$ will play with content locking toys from Intel, Linux might gain a number
of new users. The users burned they fingers with M$' DRM and friends. (*) No other relation.
M$ can do what ever stupid things they have money for.
Intel can do what ever M$/Hollywood pays money for.
Linux? - "world domination. fast." (c)
P.S. Just try to imaging what kind of pain could be recovery DRMed OS. Windoze is now barely
recoverable - DRM will make it only worse. And after recovery all your precious data "gone
with the wind". Something similar happened to me. I do not do such things anymore: say chances
that valuable info in open format will be stolen vs. it will be dumbly lost to DRM are equal. But
open data have advantage of being at least recoverable from OS/hardware failures.
