Yeah it certainly can't be disabled (I argue this point on a regular |
| 8 |
basis to no avail), as in non functional as it is involved in the |
| 9 |
pre-BIOS-boot process. |

A certain low-morals company claims that they "disable" it with |
| 11 |
me_cleaner (they also infer they made it) but that is impossible. |

To me disabled is no electricity flowing through it/physically |
| 14 |
disconnected and that couldn't be the case without enough money and |
| 15 |
resources to the point where one could simply make a POWER laptop with |
| 16 |
the current lot of POWER9 CPU's (ie: downclock and do some power saving |
| 17 |
engineering) - so de-facto impossible. |
