It would surprise me if the first motherboard manufacturer to sell a Windows-booting-only motherboard in the US to find itself, along with Microsoft, explaining in Federal Court just how this key signing scheme doesn't violate the Sherman Antitrust act or section 3 of the Clayton Act.

If I were a manufacturer I might think long and hard about having to make that argument, especially if my co-defendant was a convicted monopolist.
