   That's it, and the rumors that once Vista is well entrenched, M$ plans to    
   try to use the DMCA to force hardware manufacturers to make hardware that    
   will be "Vista compatible" that is, hardware that will only run on Vista,    
   and nothing else, not even older versions of Windows. THAT is how they    
   intend to kill Linux. Somone who so much as writes a driver for any other    
   OS will be prosecuted under the DMCA. Sure, we can keep using our old    
   hardware, which will eventually become obsolete and break down.
