CDs are dangerous

[rbandrews]

Public Service Announcement Shaming:

Reading how to reset the root password on a Mac led to this little tidbit:

"IMPORTANT: Because a user with the Mac OS X install disc can gain unrestricted access to your computer, you should keep the disc in a safe place."

What's that, Apple? Did you just say that if any idiot with a blank CD has physical access to my CD drive, they can root my machine?

I bet the Math Emporium people would find that interesting...
