Hey, David Maynor's work won an award!

Most overhyped bug: The controversial MacBook Wi-Fi vulnerabilities released by David Maynor at last year?s Black Hat took this dubious award. ?In the end, the only public information about Maynor?s Wi-Fi vulnerabilities are hype, denial, a media frenzy, and a patch that may or may not have been based on Maynor?s findings,? the judges said.

Richly deserved, David. Give yourself a pat on the back.

Cough - you should know how to do that - cough.

About The Macalope: An Apple blog

Born of the earth, forged in fire, the Macalope was branded "nonstandard" and "proprietary" by the IT world and considered a freak of nature. Part man, part Mac, and part antelope, the Macalope set forth on a quest to save his beloved platform. Long-eclipsed by his more prodigious cousin, the jackalope (they breed like rabbits, you know), the Macalope's time has come. Apple news and rumormonger extraordinaire, the Macalope provides a uniquely polymorphic approach. He is a member of the CNET Blog Network and is not an employee of CNET. Disclosure.
