Dave forwarded me this today. It’s a brief write-up from a techie who allegedly disassembled his new Dell laptop to find a keylogger *built into the machine* and the ensuing interesting responses from both Dell support and the US Dept. of Homeland Security.
Now normally, I’d disregard this as an urban myth in the making… but with the constant “heightened state of alert” in the US of late, I’m not so sure.
Please someone tell me its untrue.

Looks like they've managed to debunk it.
