how random is it?
It uses temperature and electronic noise
Nowadays, the chip is built in almost all motherboard. This link is better. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_random_number_generator
I remember there are also RNG using photon or other quantum stuff. They are not very expensive (price comparable to harddisk, I think), easy to use and not very big in size. Dr Chang Ee Chien mentioned it on his crypto class.
