We've heard that before. Maybe this time it will come true. Modern BIOSes usually don't take more than a few seconds to boot, so that seems like a non-issue. The single biggest driving factor is prolly the size limit of the conventional IBM-PC partition table. Although I bet they could extend the traditional BIOS again if they didn't have a compelling alternative. This would mean you won't be able to install MS-DOS on your 2.5 terabyte hard disk, though. ;-) -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
