Wow. That's all I can say is wow. Can you image what would happen if MS
ever really implemented the 'revocation mechanism'? The backlash would
be immense. I can't even image what the hardware vendors like Dell, HP,

"Hey, look at that. Microsoft just disabled all of the video cards we
ship in our Dimension 1100's. Oh, hey, our phone lines are full. COOL!"

What happens if some griefer decides that he hates nVidia, and knows
just enough to trigger the revocation process. Or a competitor files a
bogus breakage report?
This looks to be like a full employment act for lawyers.
