Afraid not. But here is a relevant fact: Apple have not shipped a
computer with a TPM since 2006, and even for the few months they shipped
TPMs there were no drivers for them so they were unusable. Given the
fact that Apple is one of the top notebook vendors in the world, and has
been for more than 10 years, that's a significant number of "all
notebooks" which don't have TPMs.

Perhaps the speaker meant "all IBM notebooks have come with a TPM". This
may actually be true but I have no data to support or refute it.
