Maybe the OS (windows) will encode all recorded music with your public key so it's unplayable on any other machine? Who knows, the possibilites really are limitless.
Worse than that. On any other OS: The sealed data can only be unsealed if the PCR has the same value as at the time of sealing. Thus, if an attempt is made to boot an alternative system, or a virus has backdoored the system, the PCR will not match, and the unseal will fail, thus protecting the data From the whitepaper, under the title "What is TCPA"
So now Joe User not only will not be able to share his mp3, but if he tries to change its OS from that hypotetical version of windows to Linux he will be unable to listen to them too.
At the end of the article there's a link with info about a chip that measures pressure and temperature of the tires:

Note: at the time of posting this the page seems./ed:( anyone got more info about it?
the benefit of this??... Michelin hopes manufacturers will pay a little more for tires with RFID transponders, because it makes the tires easier to track. ...all for Michelin, which increases the prices of these tires for an useless feature, because why would you want to track tires? They're supposed to stay with the car all the time aren't they?
Even more, as someone pointed the max range of that transmitters is 24 inches, so they're not even a tracking device, at that distance anyone can identify you from your vehicle's id plate.
It has different max-speeds (user choosen) which should allow it to drive in sidewalks (8mph sidewalk operation)
IMO banning all innovation for security sake isn't the way to go, REGULATING is.

I tried that (yes, i was bored) and the only think that happened was a loud and ugly sound when trying to put reverse.
Transmission didn't broken (the car is still alive) so YES there is protection against user stupidity there...
Other special aspects of his browser are the fact that access to 120 Internet search engines and other features such as music and video players are built in.
Oh access to 120 search engines!!, in opposition to the rest of browsers where you can only acces to 3 or 4 search engines?
I bet he just cached the first page of 120 search engines to make the browser look faster... and that caching is included in the 780000 lines of code.

get in the way of some high voltage cables, and then crash into a bridge over the highway. 25 deaths and 20.000 persons without electricity for 2 days
Better not have to pay an assurance for a vehicle like that...

Ugly??
How you dare to understimate such acomplishment?
It's the first 3D card with incorporated hair dryer!

This is the first I thinked just after reading the article. O well, another place where you must disconnect your phone: when driving
