I want to get a bigger LCD for Christmas (1600x1200 vs 1024x768) and I have a question concerning the implementation of HDCP in Windows Vista. When Windows Vista comes out, I do not want to just throw away a $550 LCD. That would be crazy. I want to know if HDCP can be enabled on the video card in order to prevent the need to buy a >$1000 HDCP Ready monitor. Now I want my PC to be Windows Vista Ready. Microsoft has an article here. Within the article is the following: "HDCP applied inside the graphics chip It is preferable that HDCP is applied inside the graphics chip, to remove the need to route unprotected digital signals to an external DVI chip." So my question is, does this mean that HDCP can be activated by the GPU, and thus, Vista will not require a HDCP monitor?
