Randall, and any others who might be offended:
Look, I carefully considered my posting that to this list after all the flack that you and others gave me the last time. If you truly believe that issues pertaining to the Intel Core Duo chips are off-topic for any computer or operating system list, then I'll have to rethink my opinion of your level of expertise.
I personally think that Intel chip problems and their potential impact on opensuse, Redhat, Ubuntu or any one of the mryiad variants of Linux out there would be very much on topic or, at the very least, close enough to not warrant an admonition from you.
There might come a day when I will give up on trying to give you (that is you, plural, as in the list membership) information that might be of some relevance. That time hasn't got here quite yet.
If you don't agree with my postings, then you are quite welcome to configure your email filter to flush any message containing my email address. That way, you won't be bothered by any perceived impropriety on my part.

Fred, I for one read the article you linked to and appreciated the link. I'm not on the OT list. The one thing that may have made it truly on-topic would be ask what efforts the Linux community and opensuse in particular is making to work around the Intel Duo bugs described. ie. There appear to be security holes and other issues in the new MMU implementations. Does anyone know?
