Rob,

I knew it, you're a timetraveller (-AI) !

As the Sony PS66 would be released around y 2360 (on a linear schedule) and i wonder what at that time, 'long out of date' exactly would be ...

Back to the topic ... i think that standard encryptions with 512 or even 1024 bits are no more safe with the progress of supercomputing, and even John Doe can do it with DAS.

But an awful lot of applications leave history (more or less all of them) and if you want to avoid that on a laptop, there's probably no way around a VM kiosk system. And i think i'm going to go there.
