My comments were based on articles written when this first hit. At that time M$ was pushing for no option available to disable this function and their explanation was that it would allow "breaking" of their system.
Please post a verifiable source for this comment. Nothing I have read supports this claim... although I read a lot of comments talking about 'possibilities', etc...
This just doesn't fly though, if you think about it... as I said, any vendor who manufactured such motherboards would be shooting themselves in the head.
The option that you mention was being discussed as a possible option for mfgs, but again M$ was fighting that at the time.
again, I have read *nothing* that supports this claim that MS wanted to prevent the ability for the user to disable the option in the BIOS.
