Default Windows Attempting To Take Over PCs Forever

http://www.networkworld.com/communit...t-turn-secure-
boot-red-hat-warns

Users who buy systems that ship with no way to turn secure boot off, and
only Microsoft's key installed, will not be able to load Linux or any
other non-Microsoft operating system. Users who buy systems that allow
secure boot to be disabled, but only Microsoft's key installed, will have
to give up the rootkit protection secure boot offers if they want to run
unsigned operating systems or drivers.

Again, enterprise IT professionals should let their OEMs know that they
want the choice and control in their own hands, and not in the operating
system vendor's. You shouldn't have to give up the benefits of secure
boot to have authority over your own fleet of PCs.

This is the first I have heard of it!

I really can't imagine a moron/idiot/imbecile/etc. stoopid enough to
purchase it, but they keep coming out with upgrades daily, it seems, not
of hardware -- but I mean MORONS!

Like nancy said, just say NO!

We used to do free classes in installing/using Linux, I have
participated in many on the local Jr. college campuses here ... I guess
that has been stopped? Time to re-start that! With Ubuntu any windows
idiot can use linux ... immediately, out of the box! And, not only is
it just as good (except for most games, but then you can usually wine
the older ones), it is fooking free!

Well..
We're happy that it worked for you.

But, next time, use a condom when you have contact with a "professional"..
It will reduce the chances of re-infection..

The Statistics usually show that the so-called
'professionals' insist on and use 'condoms'
much more often then the "amateurs" {free-love}
-aka- pick-ups, hook-ups, friends, booty-calls...

'Safe Sex' -is- "Safe Sex" -so- Practice It 24/7 [.]

routine and exterminate every bit on the platters exactly how they gonna do
