I hope everyone agrees that this would be bad news. > > +1 (for your statement, not for the UEFI crap ;) PS: Some people with much more knowledge than I've got explained why UEFI isn't secure in the way it's supposed to be secure. IMO it might be possible that it's only to get rid of FLOSS OSes. They anyway won't get rid of FLOSS software for Windows ;) neither it's a solution against virulent software. As Mr. Brauner (Brauner Microphones) and Mr. Fey (Studio Mag) ones mentioned: "We only like rich people to be able to get knowledge and the abilities to produce music, all the other people are trash only". I thank both and I know why several friend and I aren't friends with Mr. Brauner anymore, Mr. Fey anyway never was a friend of mine or any other one I know. Microsoft is a little bit big bigger than Brauner and the Studio Mag. Those people are the pure evil. I'm happy that Steve Jobs is dead, I don't know him personal, but I suspect him as the same kind (or much more worse) of human, as some evil humans I personal know and Mr. Gates seems to be the same kind of human, I also don't know him personal. Has anybody knowledge about weapon systems ;)?!. I don't have knowledge ;), but AFAIK the company M$ is a global player regarding to war. I might be mistaken. "Market economy" isn't evil per se, humans make it anti-social. I'm pissed!
