Its not just Intel, its AMD as well. You have to wonder what goes through their heads when they decide to put these things in. Or perhaps no thought went into it. They were compelled to do it.

So, for security there's gain, but there's a perfoprmance loss, and I'm OK with it. I just have to be a little more patient. Last edited by rons; 30th July 2018 at 11:06 PM. |

I pulled an Intel 386 tablet out of storage that doesn't have IME or speculative execution. I installed OpenBSD on it and it works fine for my purposes, except I haven't been able to get the sound working so far.
I bought a KVM so I could also access Windows on my main desktop, but I regret that purchase as I don't like using Windows any more. Yesterday I bought a rotary ethernet switch on Ebay for $10. So I will be able to store my personal files on my powerful machine that doesn't go online and access them from the 386. I've seen these 386 tablets go for $30-50 on Ebay up to $200 if they've been refurbished and had Win 8 put on them. When they were brand new they went for around $3000 so they were good quality when they were new. I probably should have done what you did, but I don't like throwing things out if they are in perfect working order. I guess the upside is I got to continue using OpenBSD... Perhaps getting one of those Thinkpads the OpenBSD developers seem to like so much, would be a better option. But only if they made them before IME.
