This issue does not affect systems as shipped from our factory and is limited to replacement parts only. Dell has removed all impacted motherboards from its service supply chain and new shipping replacement stock does not contain the malware. So if you have a fancy new one and haven't had anything replaced....its fine. Ehren J.
