"Solid State PCs: VIRUS KILLERS"

Solid State PCs which are already being developed in Asia and South America! They do not have hard drives. Instead, the operating systems are burned on to chips. Making malware and viruses problems of the past. Though the development of these computers is possible. There are problems with booting from Flash RAM (Random Access Memory). "'Solid-state PCs are a natural progression of existing technology,'" said Ken Steinberg of Savant Protection which has been experimenting with improving operating security. These are created on behalf of security worries and a push towards Unix/Linux operating systems. "'Today's operating systems are vulnerable to viruses and other intrusions because they live on devices that permit write-only access,' Steinberg said."
