Boing Boing: Apple to add Trusted Computing to the new kernel?: ""

(Via ODx86.)

What does this mean? Right now nothing much, but if it turns out to be true, this will probably become a big deal. Rather than speculating what will happen, it is best just to see how things go. I am pretty sure Apple would not be so audacious to piss off all its users just to satisfy Intel or the music industry that is bent on keeping a tight lease on licensing issues. Anyway, even if this were true, I think we could always count on honest developers not to abuse it.

Worse case scenario, fall back to text files, just as what the Pragmatic Programmers suggested in their book: From Journeyman to Master and rely on real editors like Vim and Emacs.
