For Dell desktops/notebooks, if someone can provide me with details
regarding BIOS crashes (more than "it's horked", but how it's horked,
and if it's clearly like an ACPI table that's wrong and can be shown
how), I've got the ears of the BIOS guys (being held in jars on
my desk). They're getting tired of hearing on the discussion boards
"Dell BIOSses are broken".

Of course, I take reports of server and workstation BIOS problems too.

Thanks,
Matt
