Odd how this is happening with Intel since they have an entire division 
dedicated to embedded computing and Linux support yet they cripple open 
source BIOS development. You'd think with all the poor course decisions 
at Intel in the past few years they'd open up vs more closely tighten 
something as simple and non threatening to Intel as chipset BIOS specs. 
Is Phoenix or is M$ really the one behind keeping chipset BIOS specs 
under lock and key?

On the other hand AMD is open to open BIOS development but you have to 
jump through hoops to get docs from AMD chipset vendors at times and AMD 
chipsets are really just for proof of concept and product launch vs 
production.
