Not really.

I also duel boot windows / linux, and ran into the following errors tryin to set it up with TC

You can't encrypt the whole drive if you have more than 1 OS on 1 drive (not partition)

You can encrypt only your windows partition, but ONLY if you are using the windows boot manager in your MBR, and move grub to your linux partition.

If you have 2 drives, 1 for windows and 1 for linux, you should be home free.

Guess i'll stick to encrypted volumes :)

Fixing US Broadband Would Cost $100 Billion 484

I Don't Believe in Imaginary Property writes "According to a new report from EDUCASE (pdf), it would cost $100 billion to wire the US with fiber optics and keep our infrastructure from falling behind the rest of the world. Specifically, they recommend what has worked in many other countries — government investment and unbundling — which are often criticized by free market groups, even though those policies have resulted in faster, better connections for smaller total costs. Ars Technica mentions in their analysis of this report that the President will be releasing a report on US broadband today, too."
