Probably because the new BIOS and the chip itself are part of the

Very interesting article. I bought my boxed 10.4 installer
several months ago--anyone have a very early 10.4 installer?
Does the EULA for it say the same thing? The wording, tho
it wasn't in the 10.3 EULA, certainly isn't restricted
to intel-based Macs. (Here's the link to the wording again:

I think it's very important to anyone who cares about their data
security. I doubt Little Snitch will be able to effectively monitor,
when TC is implemented. The only place to monitor would be from outside
the system, packet sniffing etc. And with TCPM everything will be strong
encrypted. I first came across the mac intel element of this in slashdot:

There's a lot more but this is LS list so I'll stop here while it is
still vaguely relevant!
