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

As stated, they are not paying M$, they are paying Verisign a TOTAL of $99 for a certificate they can use to sign their software.  This is not worth the time to discuss it.

Curious to see what the take is on this amongst the PLUG users.  Is this a lot about nothing or the beginnings of a real problem?
