I just love this bit:

Then run a Command Prompt window as an administrator and type
manage-bde -protectors -add c: -TPMAndPIN; you'll be prompted to
set a PIN for the drive. Once you've done this, the next time you
boot, the system will ask for a PIN before it boots into Windows.

Remember what I said about Microsoft trying to turn Windows into
Linux?

System checkpoint complete.
