Thanks that was useful, and does make clearer why the complaint exists.
It almost seems like there should be two Win8 logos:
1. The Standard Win8 Logo -- where secure boot is disabled.
2. The Secure Win8 Logo -- as I think the best story is for MS to sign all the drivers.
That way if you're buying something like a laptop or tablet, where you're a lot less likely to swap things in or out, then maybe the Secure Win8 is what you want. But for a desktop where you plan on moving over a lot of your old HW or do upgrades, you may not want the Secure logo. Just thoughts.
