(I'm sure that Microsoft will try it, they've
got an awful lot to gain if people buy into
Palladium. I sespect that people won't rush
out to buy Palladium enabled software/hardware
though...)

<p>If a soundblaster is listed as "Palladium compatible"
on the MS website then it's only because it's a
programmable device. Palladium doesn't actually
exist yet.
