And just think -- last year you were singing Dino Dai Zovi\'s praises for taking control of a MacBook Pro in nine whole hours. This year, the PWN 2 OWN hacking competition at CanSecWest was over nearly as quickly as the second day started, as famed iPhone hacker Charlie Miller showed the MacBook Air on display who its father really was. Apparently Mr. Miller visited a website which contained his exploit code (presumably via a crossover cable connected to a nearby MacBook), which then allowed him to seize control of the computer, as about 20 onlookers [read: unashamed nerds] cheered him on. Of note, contestants could only use software that came pre-loaded on the OS, so obviously it was Safari that fell victim here. Nevertheless, he was forced to sign a nondisclosure agreement that\'ll keep him quiet until TippingPoint can notify the vendor, but at least he\'ll have $10,000 and a new laptop to cuddle with during his silent spell.
