Probably comparable to people who fix their own cars, not a great deal in the grand scheme of things.

tbh im not sure thats the case chap, the biggest market is gamers for pc's, most are pretty geeked up so self build.

tis an interesting point though, dont think it could ever be quantified though

PC gamers make up a vast majority of those who build their own PC's, I suppose its not as big as buying an off the shelf PC for family use but if you add the amount of components sold you may be shocked as there is a very big market for that.

Most PC's purchased off the shelf are probably more for family use so a jack of all trades as they say.

WOW! That was fast, Samsung have started to roll out the fix for this bug in less than a month. Apple would have denied there was such an issue and tell people not to use their phone a certain way. How long did Apple take to address the Flashbak trojan or issues with iPhone 5 and iOS 6. Well done Samsung, great work!

It took that long to fix and you think they did a great job, that's brainwashing right there.

Well you think Apple Maps is the best thing since sliced bread and that's still not fixed since it was released last year, brainwashed?!

Happy New Year BTW!

Is this security update included in Jellybean 4.1.2 ?

I just checked for updates and my phone did a large update, it was previously running Jellybean so i presume that was 4.1.1 and its now updated it to 4.1.2 ?

If not where is the security update ?

XDA developers have been in the smartphone business longer than Apple and Samsung combined!
