The problem I have at the moment is the speed of booting. It doesn't appear to have any moment where you can press ESC or DEL or F2 or F10 or whatever, to get into BIOS, which is a pain. And if it locks me out of the BIOS, then I can't alter the boot sequence, which means it wouldn't allow me to set it to boot from a CD ROM or USB stick.
What has been people's experience with this sort of thing?
