 Hi,
  
 I was wondering how to update microcode of an Intel CPU and came across
 cpucontrol and sysutils/devcpu-data . But last mentioned port is not 
 up-to-date
 anymore. I searched Intel's webpages for microcode updates and found archives
 for Linux containing one single microcode.dat file. Could someone tell me if
 that file is compatible with FreeBSD? As devcpu-data installs .fw files it
 might be proper to convert/compile microcode.dat in some way. How?
