" it is easy to think of a situation where they are in Macs but not PC's because some kind of software-hardware integration is required that Apple can live up to but Microsoft/Intel can't implement in their gray market. "


Wake up dude - you haven't actually seen a PC for about 5 years have you? Macintosh is (sadly) still well below the hardware curve - despite what you have heard from Apple's very false - er, I mean 'creative' marketing of the less-than-impressive G5. They may yet get it together, but you are naive if you still have the outdated view that PC's are junk. (Don't get me wrong - many consumer PC's are low-cost junk, but the higher end of PC hardware is leaving apple in its wake.)


PC's will likely have HD DVD burners in them before Apple sorts out the hardware issues with the G5...

    The point was that since Macs are a closed platform, it might be easier to implement protection schemes than on Wintel PCs, which is a more open platform.
