Adobe To Push Emergency Fix For Flash Bug

Posted by samzenpus on Wednesday November 3, 2010 @05:29AM from the hurry-up dept.

Trailrunner7 writes "Adobe has moved up the release date for the patch for the critical bug in Adobe Flash Player revealed last week, and now plans to have an emergency fix ready on Thursday. The company still plans to patch Reader two weeks from now. The vulnerability in Flash also exists in Reader and researchers said last week that attackers had already begun exploiting the bug in Reader by the time that Adobe acknowledged the problem and published an advisory. At the time of the initial advisory, Adobe officials said they planned to release a patch for Flash on Nov. 9 and for Reader on Nov. 15."

I have a Tandy 1000 RLX. With its 80286 processor, VGA video, IDE support and 1.44 MB floppy drive, it's the best, smallest Tandy 1000 to have while still being able to easily find legacy parts for it (monitor, hard drive, etc).
If you only run MS-DOS, replace the hard drive with the biggest supported Compact Flash card you can find. You can store all your old games on it and still have lots of room left.
