Microsoft has been attempting to deploy an architecture like this for some time. Check out Microsoft's NGSCB/Paladium/TCPA initiatives (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palladium_operating_ system). This is a paper tiger without the special hardware. In a few years a push will be made to get people to adopt the hardware. It will be interesting to see how they sell it.
