What has anyone heard of this new operating system? A local computer person claims it has some built in ways for you to be monitored well beyond what is being done now with cookies and such. Any one know the scoop?

You've all heard the rumor why Vista took so long to be released right? The NSA had their fingers into it. Was it just a rumor? :?
It's true. The NSA said they felt it was in their interest to help secure the new Windows to protect itself as hundreds of thousands of their employees use Windows for their OS. This is not the first time. They were used for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003. Microsoft is not the only one. The Mac OS X was helped along by the NSA. Nato was even used.
