Does this mean a keyboard?

"These included addressing hacker tactics such as keystroke detectors and memory dumps."

While Otellini was vague on when mutlicore computing would hit the desktop, he did set some milestones for the roll out of LaGrande, the vendor's hardware-based security technology. Otellini ran a demonstration of the technology, highlighting ways in which it should enhance security. These included addressing hacker tactics such as keystroke detectors and memory dumps. He said Intel was working with a number of partners on the technology, Microsoft key amongst them, and expected to bring it to market in the next two to three years.

Having security software built into the CPU has raised privacy concerns, and Otellini sought to defuse these. He said customers would be able to buy systems with the technology disabled, and would have the choice to opt in and opt out of LeGrande.

Otellini also unveiled a new technology dubbed Vanderpool, which the company said will allow PCs to operate like mainframes. Vanderpool will allow multiple operating systems to be run on a single PC. Intel said this virtualization-like technology will increase the robustness of PCs, as well as offering increased security. Vanderpool looks like it will be running behind LeGrande, with Otellini saying the technology will appear in the next five years.
