What is going on with HP and why are they so slow?

I love my HP machine, its the last baught for me by my dad. Sadly, I have no idea when patches are available because they don’t come to me. I tried to navigate web sites like HP’s to download things I need, but I have no idea what I’m looking for or even if what I’m getting is correct.

With that said, I’m not in disagreement that we need to check for updates by the manufacturer, but I think we need to have them come to us like Windows Update does for Windows.

Have an HP computer? These dangerous bugs have been unpatched for a YEAR is the article, I hope I could figure out if I’m vulnerable. Don’t know if I’ll be able to do that though.
