Hi,
When I read the part about being Windows-proof, I *really* liked that idea. Also, about the audit-proof aspect.
Would built-in file encryption be a foolish thing to wish for some day? (Maybe when the chips are bigger?)

ps This list is *very* informative, and I am grateful for having access to it. I wish my talents were greater, and especially more current, so that I could contribute. Thanks to all, in the list. Merry Christmas, & Happy Holidays to all. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- On Saturday 20 December 2003 11:21 am, ron minnich wrote: ...... - we provide (for those who want it) PCBIOS support as an option Making it optional allows vendors to build Windows-proof PCs, and I have had some interest expressed in that concept: if you are Windows-proof, you are audit-proof.

we should really make PCBIOS an option of last resort. We should not plan for it as anything but a hack for OSes that are doing the wrong thing -- using a PCBIOS.
