There was a time when RDRAND on Zen gave all zeroes, or something, so eh...

I'm happy enough with TLS introduced: knowing the server I'm reaching for updates is actually 'amd.com'. Signatures would be nice, sure, but I wouldn't consider them nearly as critical or useful until now. Before we get too caught up in signatures, however, I'd like to see their new/improved updater actually take precedence.

As things stand, I'm not sure key rotation would go well... the updater doesn't mind itself, apparently.
