RE: Maybe...
My point about the target disk mode was not that it was the start--I know it's a higher level function dependent on the DMA, but unless I am mistaken here, the Mac's firmware (not the operating system) does have some control here, which is one way to block someone using Target Disk mode from accessing your system (which bypasses the OS as well. I don't think it bypasses the CPU though). It's the firmware I'm getting at here, and the lock downs to protect your machine that I'm getting at.
