Agreed. But having said that, it would be nice to have a reasonably priced hardware implementation of ssh/ssl. The software versions are quite slow, and the hardware accelerators I know of are quite expensive. I'm all for fighting the misuse of this technology that the RIAA and whatever else acronym we're talking about wants to implement, but I wonder if there aren't any valid uses of this technology. //Anders
