The problem is chip based, not OS based.


Right. But there are other chips on which Linux runs, such as various
RISC chips. What currently available computers use one of these other
chips?

So all OSs are susceptible.


Not those running on chips other than Intel, AMD, or ARM.


I don't have any issues with my Alphas.

But then Alpha processors were designed by smarter engineers
than Intel's H1B clowns.
