Speaking of the TPM 1.2 module...does anyone have a machine that they
have tested on?  I don't, and when I looked at Dell, they had a couple
laptops with a 1.1 module.  Now they have one laptop with a TPM 1.1b.
They did have some tablets, but I could not find the version of the
TPM chip they are using.
