The system needs to have a TPM (Trusted Platform Module) chip to support BitLocker. I think most new systems come with it.
You don't need a TPM (and remember, that's a TPM 1.2 chip...I've seen systems recently for sale with a 1.1) chip, but you do get additional options if you do have one. It's not in most new systems, but many business class systems now come with the chip. I think it makes sense to make sure you have one, since it will open up options if you do, and you don't have to use it. -- Roger A.
