You will never know success until you know failure

Will this Crypto schemes be backwards compatible for thiose of us that will be working in environments consuisting of Windows XP and Windows Vista.

Why doesn't the Tech evangelist guy let the crypto guys answer the questions themselves. I think he is annoying.

Question: Who are you, littlebear? like Scoble would say in his videos Smiley

Any biometrics stuff coming?

I remember seeing one of those mice (Seimens ID-Mouse?) with a fingerprint reader which you can use to login to your Windows account...

Maybe some .NET APIs to load/store/compare your fingerprints?

Or will you need to purchase separate (costly) SDKs from the device manufacturers?

PS: Posting this from a "5219" PC Smiley
