OS HDD is the only thing i haven't replaced in my computer over 7 years now,
10GB 9000rpm or something. Even tho it gets formatted a few times a year.
Might upgrade to a Solid State Flash Disk when they get 10GB.

I'd like the idea. About the objections, as alvaro sais, just disable it,
so
that youness can even tell them "open the xml and search for the
'password'
string" (or just use the old enc method) :)
People sharing their profile among PCs can just disable the encryption or
use the old method.
Now it's just a matter of choosing the piece of hardware that people
change
less often :)
