  It is one that swallows your card.  It has an electronic 'interlock'
of sorts so if the machine crashes like that, it actually releases the
card.

  They got lazy tho, if they'd used XP Embedded proper (it's just XP
Professional with modules removed), then they'd have removed Winlogon,
boot screen, etc.
