There was some discussion of this in a major mag recently, I just can't
remember which one.

IIRC, there is some encryption stuff in there, and they're only releasing
it to select people, in order to avoid problems with virii and such
messing up the BIOS/microcode on the chip...


Maybe it was on cnews.com, that sounds more like it.
