Yeah I want to see them freeze, then unsolder the bga chips off the pcb and cold resolder them onto another to read their contents without heating it back up.
"Side channel attacks do not attack the underlying cipher and so have nothing to do with its security as described here, but attack implementations of the cipher on systems which inadvertently leak data. There are several such known attacks on certain implementations of AES."
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
Didn't hackers already find a way to bust that AES-256 hardware encryption using a can of compressed air?

Couldn't they use that method some professor came up with to copy the memory over usb?

Either way, heavy duty encryption is great and all but if someone swipes your laptop then don't expect all your data to remain safe.
