    There is a group of similar products available which do far more:
    
    you may 'freeze' the state of hard drives for a pc. the device writes all
    changes which occur after the freeze in a special, not directly visible
    partition on the hdd. additionally you can prohibit changes to bios, 
    partition table ...
    when you restart your pc, this partition is lost and all is back in its
    primary state. 
    we use this system for securing standalone NTworkstations which are used
    as info-terminals for anonymous internet access.
    
    There are at least 3 product which handle this. the one we test at the moment
    is http://www.daten-airbag.de/textvers/index.html
