[FDE] ver 6.0 of TrueCrypt
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
New features include (my summary):
* parallelized encryption/decryption (to take advantage of multi-core
computers that are all the rage these days)
* plausibly deniable hidden OS support
* backup of volume header (reliability update)
* ability to create hidden volumes on Mac/Linux
* some other stuff...
Of all the new features, the "hidden OS support" looks the coolest, since
most FDE products (for the OS) don't do this (meaning you're still
susceptible to the "gun to the head" scenario).

I wonder if/when TC will support TPM chips, allowing for PIN entry ('stead
of entering a complex p/w on startup) and pre-boot integrity checking).
