I have had several clients interested in fingerprint recognition logon. This would be a great selling feature and added security.

Hi Stabonie,

We are to begin work on this within the next month. Drop me a note offline if you would like me to put you on a mailing list for this product. Thanks

I too am interested in this. While you CAN use a product like Digital Persona's business class products, Microsoft's fingerprint technology is nothing more than licensed technology from them which unfortunately, for obvious IP reasons, is dumbed down to the point where you cannot have multiple profiles per windows account and domain logins...other than that, Microsofts product "works", but you would have to Fast User Switch and enable login for each transaction for it to work effectively; which in essence needless burdens the system if you have more than a couple users and slows things down in that to maintain security, you have to scan your print twice (once to switch to the user and once to login to SO). So there ARE already solutions out there, just a matter if you are willing to pay for the product that offers the features that Microsofts does not.

I might just bite the bullet and spend the extra m> I have had several clients interested in fingerprint recognition logon. This
