We figured out that our computer class had a few computers infected by the Ambulance virus[0]. So of course we intentionally infected all the computers with it =)

On the other hand me and a few of my friends were the only computer literate people in the school and were tasked with removing it in the end.

But still, it was fun seeing a whole class of computers have an ambulance run at the bottom of the screen with the poor beeper emulating the siren.

Earlier versions of Intel Management Engine used ARC core. It is somewhat funny to see Intel licensing third-party CPU IP core to use in their CPUs of all the things…
