I think this may be more likely an effect for OEM vendors more than
those of use who build their own machines.
Someone like dell for example could lock a computer so that only the

I think this will have more effect on corporate users to prevent
someone from booting something that is not policy approved, it always
has been a weak point.
I know Apple will really jump on this im sure to prevent the hackintosh
