Next time, look up the Thinkpads. My T460p matches your requirements. 14", 32GB, under 2Kg (1.8), Proper i7 HQ CPU (i.e 4 proper cores). Mine came with a built-in GeForce 940MX, but it has never been enabled. External ports work just fine without it.

EUV has been worked on for a while, but at the scales they're ending up on, there's more problems that they don't address in the article. Electromigration starts to become a real problem when the transistors are only a few 10s of atoms wide for example.

"To keep Power constant (at 500mA) when the device has rigged current it is drawing so that it will get 1000mA, it COULD cut the voltage in half since it has control over that. BUT that violates USB standards. They specifically say you can't do that, your only response is to TURN OFF the supply of power entirely."

It's been a while since I read the specs, but isn't this statement contradicting how a USB DCP charger _should_ behave according to BC1.1/1.2 ?
As in, when Idcp goes above what the charger can deliver, Vchg should drop..

Now, Apples chargers are not DCP devices, but their phones/tablets surely know how to deal with a DCP charger..

Of course, I'm not going to downplay the effects this could have for Cisco and in the long run for possibly tainted opensource projects.. The comments in here speak for themselves that people can't keep their hands off the source-code.

I've seen the 12.3 sourcecode before, under NDA, and several institutions outside of Cisco has legal access to it. Several universities, most of the larger security-firms such as ISS and whatnot have had access to it for years. So it's been combed through pretty well before. Sure there might be an odd exploit released from this source, but I don't count it as very probable, and certainly not as a threat to internet stability.
