Michael,

    Interesting. Did you read my posting and consider what I was asking
or did you just leap at a chance to market on a technical mailing list?

    If I am using Linux, which I clearly stated in my original email,
why would I have a windows login and password?

    I already have Momentus FDE drives (boxes of them). You bundle your
software with Momentus FDE drives at "no additional cost"? You must be
really over charging for your software if a drive can be bundled for free.

    I swear, this is one reason why open-source is so popular.

    If anyone knows of a single-user, non-enterprise and open-source
approach to a PBE environment for the Momentus FDE please share.

Jeff
