Bill Gates Is Right?
Scott Granneman, 2004-11-19

Bill Gates is right about one thing: asking people to use a two-factor form of authentication would go a long way toward alleviating a lot of the password problems that plague computer security today.

I'm all for either a biometric scan or smart card. It would definitley make life easier and much more secure to an extent.

I agree with Scott that whatever standard that is agreed upon should be open standards based and not owned by any corporate entity(i.e. MS).
