And may they see little to no business! The content produces need to decide whether or not to release their content. Hardware should NOT be the s/w or data protection battle ground. Pretty soon, the harw-wired copy protection will/could be bought by microsoft, and the only "free" (as in property) computers will be from a few rogues who dare to defy mirstoforc.

Yep, there needs to be another ms anti-trust trial...
