Man I am so tired of people fuckin with my baby.
I saw that, but the same page mentions Taiidan's solution for providing the
needed microcode updates. Luckily, Taiidan seems to like Qubes, so he's an easy
guy to find. :)
I use series 3 CPU's and for me they are the difference between playing
games smoothly in a VM at max settings and not playing games smoothly in
a VM at max settings, get one.
I added a philosophical section at the bottom about microcode updates.
You gotta get a KGPE-D16 and one or two G34 CPU while you still can as
they have stopped making them.
Also when I get a better job and have money to spend I am going to get
and use for my primary computer a TALOS 2 even though it doesn't support
qubes as it is much faster and has a higher level of firmware/hardware
security.
As always people can bug me for libre hardware/firmware help off list if
they want, but then it isn't on the record and can't help others :D so I
recommend posting on a list either here or the coreboot list.
