The significant point here is that unless you have access to a second machine with a burner and a reasonable amount of tech-savvy, it takes (a lot) longer than 12 minutes to secure a Windows PC.

I was talking with another nerd recently about some kind of *ultra* secure Linux that wouldn't even give you root on installation. So much for getting 0wned. It's really more of a joke I think, but could be useful, I guess, for net appliances and other thin clients.
