Lots of great pointers Duncan thank you. I'll poke |
| 2 |
around a bit and report back. I think your sig file |
| 3 |
says it all. I figure the XenSource BIOS abstration |
| 4 |
layer wull end up making it into motherboards as a |
| 5 |
full BIOS over time. That would spell the end of the |
| 6 |
closed BIOS mess we all enjoy at the moment. |

Spending time trolling msg boards hunting for fixes, I |
| 9 |
think there is definitely enough serious grey matter |
| 10 |
in the overclocker world to support an active open |
| 11 |
source bios effort. Tyan would probably be the first |
| 12 |
to make the jump in the consumer market. |
