Annoying geek phrases that should carry a penalty of death upon being spoken:
1. *nix
2. boxen
3. Let's do it for ****s and giggles
Who the **** ****s and giggles anyway?!?!!

By far, this is the best bios page I ever found. You can get answers to stuff most people dont know happens.
http://www.wimsbios.com/. I dont why he's added the skanky music though.We need seperate human-only games for MP/PBEM that dont include the over-simplifications required to have a good AI

Seems like a good enough idea.
I don't get the joke though.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

I thought it meant the same as Mercator actually
Now personally I think it is time that rather than replace it with another OS equivalent is just to completely eliminate it. Surely a lot of these functions should be turned over to the operating system and that the BIOS should be further diminished, ie, all the configuration takes place through Windows, with some kind of provision for a 'safe mode'...Speaking of Erith:

Provost: The BIOS exists in hardware, on chips in the motherboard, which tells the OS how to load.
OSes are stored on harddrives, and you can't access the harddrive until some firmware (ie, EFI, BIOS) tells the OS how to access the harddrive and prepares the HD for use."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

Well as I said, there should be a bare minimum of BIOS equivalent, enough to be able to hand over to the OS and then the OS takes over rather than go through this layer...just my thought anyway.Speaking of Erith:
