I am in awe as how you so consistently nail the current state of the WAVX state.
I hear now, though Snackman may disagree, that 70 is the old 50 and that WAVX will likely "barge" thru 50 and 70 well before Greg gets his old pistols back from refurb. I could be wrong on this 2nd thought, but the former stands intact.

Weby--Thanks for the substantive and interesting reply!!!
Whether Wave is implicated in Sandy Bridge is going to be speculative until a PR announces such a relationship (and what a PR that would be!!!!).

But the key to this investment is the MAINSTREAMING of activated TPMs....otherwise the risk of a protracted slog remains high. The enterprise and governmental sectors don't appear to be eagerly jumping on the Trusted Computing bandwagon. On the other hand, mainstreaming already activated TPMs to the consumer will create a "group think" mentality to all sectors outside of the consumer realm. Trusted computing is not a niche option; it has to be embraced by pretty by all to make it happen.

Actually, I'm just paraphrasing the future master of the universe, Steven Sprague!

Have I posted this quote before?

"Secondly, I think that in the computing industry, probably the biggest mistake being made is that everybody is looking at this as an enterprise security problem, and it's not. Primarily, it's a consumer security issue, but if we solved consumer security every enterprise will use it. It's guaranteed. But if I create the ultimate device for the DoD and they may buy it and put it in every desktop of the DoD, is it going to help consumers? Most likely not. So, so much of this we've learned and forgotten. Right? To go back in time, was the PC adopted by enterprise or consumer first? It was adopted by the consumer first."
