Hardware ban?  How would that work, serial numbered and trackable computers?
 
Just think about that for a second.  That would mean EVERYTHING that you do is
trackable, traceable, databaseable, reportable, and searchable.  That's the kind
of power that makes SOPA look like chump change.  Even better, how about
Internet Licences?
 
Instead of making cheating a user/admin issue, how about making it a developer
issue and refusing to buy games that are easily hacked.
