Interesting...  I haven't seen one of those articles in a while.
There used to be a lot of these articles that implied that one hole in
a piece of open-source software meant open-source was bad.  (Of
course, *nobody* would imply that any number of holes in closed-source
software means closed-source was bad.)

So this guy knows the thing runs Red Hat 6.1, and that Toshiba isn't
supplying updates anymore, but he doesn't take the next logical step
of looking into updates himself?  And then he blames open-source
software for getting cracked when he opened a hole in his firewall...

These on-line "magazine" type sites must really be desperate for
authors.
