"deepest, darkest realms of the processor..." is it the ME? https://recon.cx/2014/slides/Recon%202014%20Skochinsky.pdf


ME is in the chipset and it's much newer than 20 years.


It's kind of scary that there's a micro-JVM on my chipset that allows new code to be loaded in to such a privileged system dynamically.
