Not to mention that they allege this was the case six months ago. Curious--albeit not enough to RTFA--as to why they sat on such a golden nugget of PR for so long. My inner cynic is tempted to envision this:
Hrm... Okay, next security vulnerability. This one was submitted 2011/09/29.

Hey! We fixed this one already. Hey boss! Come here! I GOT ONE!!!

Submission + - Magnetic Microprocessors, UltraEfficient Computing (popsci.com)

At 18 thousandths of an electron volt--the "merest whiff of energy"--they would consume the least amount of energy allowed by the second law of thermodynamics and generate an infinitesimal amount of the waste heat exhibited by today's microprocessors.
