Not really, it's fairly easy to find most things on the internet without acquiring them from an official source. It's an open question of what will happen next - if "trusted computing" and the appliance model wins, then you can say goodbye to that. However, that hasn't happened yet, and computers are still open computing platforms. I certainly hope for a future where that doesn't happen.
