      You can neuter it with JTAG, stop trusting Wikipedia as complete. At best, usually incomplete.

        > You can neuter it with JTAG At the risk of having a non-functional processor and probably sub optimal reliability. The statement on Wikipedia is accurate. Whether you trust the information or not is neither here nor there. Several sources back up the assertion. Further down, it adds that even Google itself tried to get rid of ME and couldn't.
