True. But a "specification" that doesn't run the same way on any
two models of motherboard isn't much of one.

No it doesn't. That's the bug in the BIOS -- it screws up building
the table. I have an Intel mini-ITX board sitting in

Heh. You assume a correct ACPI BIOS implementation. The worst
offenders I've seen have been Intel-designed motherboards :-P
apic ids can be found in the madt table, from acpi, iirc.

When I first read it, I thought it was funny. But then I realiz
let me ask the question again. I know what the difference between APIC
and ACPI means.
Why is it that they don't think anyone needs that register any more?
What are they suggesting people use instead?

APICID
This register uniquely identifies an APIC in the system. This register
is not used by
OS'es anymore and is still implemented in hardware because of FUD.
