 Absolutely!!

I have to say that I'd not encountered a computer with this feature until I 
purchased my latest laptop last fall.  I have no doubt it's been around for at 
least a couple of years now, since there seems to be a link between the debut 
of Win8 and UEFI and this feature.

What's bad, though, is that this is not a feature or setting that tends to "get 
PR" as far as being listed on the box or sometimes in any of the documentation. 
 It's well-nigh impossible to be aware of it until you've already been caught 
out by it.  This is even truer if you can't test something with JAWS or another 
screen reader using some of the "naked" function key commands prior to owning 
the thing.
