Thread Name: Tech: Windows 10-what's happening - updates
Subject: RE: Tech: Windows 10-what's happening with rollout
This is off-topic but related: About two years ago it was revealed that just about all Intel/PC and quite a few non-Intel/PC CPUs were subject to malware due to hardware 'flaws'. They were called "Meltdown" and "Spectre". These were addressed by software updates but I'm curious as to whether the hardware 'original sin' has been addressed in more modern CPUS. Anyone know ? or know someone who knows?
