I vaguely remember from discussions a while back on Bruce Schneier's blog and on Freedom to Tinker, that that would be one effect of TPM hardware. I posted this link because it is the first thing I've seen recently warning that MS was resurrecting TPM, not because I thought it was technically important. They might be hit with a suit, but per the earlier discussions, it was primarily the content providers (esp MPAA) pushing for something like this, and it wold be an intersting suit considering what effect DMCA and other recent copyright legislation would have on the case.
