This doesn't impress me, even more if you can store passwords everywhere
now. I do like the single sign in to Windows, you only put your finger, and
it does the rest.

I hope so. I recall some strange behavior when I reinstalled Windows. It
didn't ask for the finger again. And I still don't know if this will work
the same if I don't have windows. after all, You enable the stuff in
