Seriously, it isn't rocket science. I can think of a number of

of them are.
Hi Dark,
That's possible I suppose. I'm not sure what it is myself but whatever

A graphical interface is one that is not 100% text and command-entering
based.
This means that, as I said, depending on how one defines what is and is not
a command, a bios is graphical.
The reason for this is that one rarely enters text into a bios.
