That's interesting. That alone may keep Intel OSX from running on a non-Mac PC (though I know there are CPU checks it is supposed to do as well).

I've read reports that Intel will be heavily involved in the design of the next motherboard. I wonder if Intel will try to push them towards BIOS or if this is maybe a sign that Intel will start to move away from it... I would hope for the later, but assume the former. BIOS is yet another thing i've never liked about PCs (i've never had a BIOS computer that didn't have issues with it getting reset and changes being lost and converserly never had any issues with non-BIOS systems like that).
