This week, Dell has unveiled a major revamp to its Latitude laptop line with the new E series, anchored by the 15-inch Latitude E6500 and 14-inch E6400.
The software update mechanisms used by most BSD and Linux operating systems can be tricked into installing buggy or known-to-be-compromised software on users' systems, creating serious security risks, according to new research.
