If Bush's administration fvcks up the share price... :|

Security risk my left ass-cheek.

Bruce Schneier, the founder and chief technical officer of Counterpane Internet Security Inc. and the author of books on computer security, said he found the possibility that Chinese operatives could use IBM's North Carolina facility as a beachhead for espionage "implausible." It would be "no more useful than a hotel room" for foreign agents, he said.

Really? Hotels get comptures shipped to them for recycle/repair?

Seems it would be the perfect place to try to suck stuff of the hard drives of broken or factory refurb computers?

I purchased a refurb from compgeeks; you would not believe the stuff the company thought they erased from the hard drive.....
