I just don't like the idea of buying a uefi motherboard and not being able to run the OS I want to on it. Maybe I will want to install an OS that predates uefi. According to the dangerous prototypes article, it looks like that could be a problem if the manufacturer of the motherboard doesn't like the particular OS I'm trying to install. If I'm missing something, please let me know. thanks On 6/9/2012 15:53, Wayne Davis wrote: > Excellent.
