Me too! I used Interlisp D on a Xerox Lisp-machine around 1985 ad it had also the Star wysiwyg Document system. Xerox people invented mouse, windows based interfaces, Smalltalk and Ethernet ... Viva Xerox PARC! Andrea

What I get is that a lot of consumer PCs can access network and run x86 code on top of UNIX-like OS such as Minix even when powered off. This sounds pretty useful for tasks such as running an occasional use Plex server. Like I can have a box that draws very little power when idle. But when an incoming connection is detected, it can power itself and the media drive on and serve the requested content. So if Intel ME is so insecure, how do I exploit it for practically useful purposes?
