Drupal Upgraded

Note that you'll likely notice any change but the version of Drupal that this website uses has been upgraded. For those that aren't aware, the main website is handled by Drupal. When you enter the forums, that's handled by SMF. Both applications are Open Source software. Anyway, not telling you this to boast. Check your user profiles on Drupal (not SMF, aka, the Forums) and make sure your profile pics haven't disappeared.

Microsoft and Red Hat sparring over secure boot

"A Red Hat developer is charging that Microsoft is using UEFI in Windows 8 to lock out Linux, which Microsoft denies."

My feeling is that Microsoft does want better security for their system and being able to possibly lock out Linux is just a pleasant side-effect. What do you think?
