Wildman- The only scenario I can envision
where HP doesn't offer this complete solution eventually, is that they go with Hitachi and get someone else to provide Wave-like functionality. That seems far-fetched, because in a mixed environment with mixed TPMs, I'm pretty sure Wave is the only option for true interoperability. And even though TPM's aren't necessary for FDE to function properly, I believe sooner or later it will all be tied to the TPM. Alea made the point that HP has always been more consumer-oriented than Dell, so maybe that explains their sluggishness, but I really think they are at risk to blow their recent gains if Dell markets this 'killer app' as aggressively as it deserves to be.
