Samsung X420, X520 CULV laptops outed

Submitted by Webmaster on Tuesday September 01, 2009

Now, details are slightly thin here (as well as machine translated), but we're getting word of two new Samsung laptops on the horizon -- the 14-inch X420 and the 15.6-inch X520.

Similarly the X520 will also feature

Submitted by Webmaster on Tuesday September 01, 2009

Submitted by Webmaster on Tuesday September 01, 2009

The bug was identified as CVE-2009-1235 and the first exploit seems to be from June 2008. The variant that I discovered is much simpler and is, as far as I know, the one that really convinced Apple to solve the issue. The oldest kernel I was able to test the probl

So, isn't that zero miles per gallon?
