why would we make such an effort as the article suggest, of doing multiple checks and whatnot and then deliberately create false tables, to cause a very small percentage of the users of that product to have a hard time?
just think about it, it doesnt make any sense whatsoever...
people just love the idea of a big evil organisation trying to enslave the human race, and consipracy theories and whatnot... but isnt it pretty obvious that this is just a bug or simply badly written acpi tables?
i dont know that much about BIOS programming, so i might be wrong...
im on a business trip atm, but when im back in taipei ill check with the engineers to see what this is about, ok?
