eamonshute, If the USB Hub is trusted, then very inexpensive keyboards with simple readers (no chips) may be used with the same effectiveness as an Embassy key board for a whole lot less money. Just a thought. We all know keyboards are disposable and replaced daily as a result of simple coffee spills. It would make more sense to have the port trusted than the keyboard. How do you replace an Embassy keyboard after bumping your espresso into it? In the design process, you start out with the big expensive solution, then try to accomplish the same tasks with cheaper easier to deploy technology. I wonder who's utility is driving that Trusted USB Port? I think every application provider is working on implementing TPM solutions to there present line of products.....CL
