Last week, Intel revealed that a serious security flaw in some of its chips left potentially thousands of devices vulnerable to attackers.

It's still **t clear just how many devices are impacted as Intel has't said, but some in the industry have put the number as high as 8,000 (http://www.zdnet.com/article/intel-chip-vulnerability-lets-******s-easily-remotely-hijack-affected-*******-pcs/).
