Can you guarantee that I will be able to copy information and documents from Windows to another OS on my computer without impediment, and that if copied, these documents will not be encrypted and tied to Windows?ĭoes it really? The fact that you have pointed out that Palladium is now called NGSCB tells me that the Microsoft advocates have come out of the woodwork. Yes, in even more of the same way as you are free to install Windows today. Except in the case of a few of the zealots here. Knowledge doesn’t just magically appear in ones head. In short, am I free to fiddle with the system setup etc? You can absolutely still distribute it, and you don’t need anyone to sign it for it to run. What if I write a small application? Will I be able to install it and distribute it if I want or will I have to pay some one (like Verisign for instance) to get the right to install? Palladium (which isn’t the name of this technology anymore, its now called the Next Generation Secure Computing Base) does not decide anything. Or does the palladium OS get to decide if I am allowed to install something? You will still be able to install what you like, and you will have full control over your computer. In a system that has all these secure areas, can I still add operating systems to the computer, or have full control of what I install?
