Personal Interview with S SPRAGUE by a WAVOID.
vintage 2004
Although the LINKED post is NOT being touted as the POST OF THE DAY; it would not surprise me to learn that it MAY have been the post of the day/week/month as much for its content as its colorful writing style.....
Kind of interesting information regarding the TCG "allowing WAVE to be essentially the only TCG utility services player for at least the first significant phase of TPM deployment"...
A snipped from the WAVOID interview with Sprague;
"to conclude that a conscious decision had been made by the leaders of TCG to allow WAVE to be essentially the only TCG utility services player for at least the first significant phase of TPM deployment. I also gained the impression that at a later stage a few of the first tier OEMs like HP, IBM would develop their own utility/management services. It appeared that WAVE's role later down the line would be that of providing Utility Services for the 2nd tier PC OEMs like E-Machine and Toshiba. In other words, all PC companies who didn't want to spend the time/money developing their own lifecycle Management tools would be using WAVE's. "
Overall, entertaining reading, and, imeshfo, a lot more fun (and enlightening~) than reading some of today's exchanges.
