What would be funny is if this hack ended up driving Vista purchases, unless there is a hack for Mac/Linux yet, which I don't believe there is.
One thing a lot of people don't get is that these exact same restrictions are going to be in any OS that wants to display HD in native resolutions. Unless someone has facts to prove me wrong I'm pretty sure that neither OS X or Linux can playback HD-DVD or BlueRay at native resolution without any DRM (HDCP) in place.
