[ltp] TCPA on Thinkpads

[Allen, Michael B (RSCH)]

That page should be renamed tcpa-fud.html. Hardware supported key management
is a natrual progression in computing and one that I welcome. Do not confuse
TCPA (Trusted Computing Platform Alliance) with CBDTPA (Consumer Broadband
and Digital Television Promotion Act). They are conceptually two completely
different things. Get educated. Don't run with the herd.
