Hi Team
	That in 2020 Intel will require the use of UEFI 3
as firmware which eliminates the Compatibility Mode Module
and only works with Secure Boot?

	Search this wiki article for "2020".
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Extensible_Firmware_Interface>

Then you might want to look at this note
<http://www.uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/Brian_Richardson_Intel_Final.pdf>

	But don't bother unless you like punchy graphics.

	It looks at the issue purely from the Intel/MS POV.

	Provision of secure keys by MS may be the new revenue stream.
But that might bring on suits against their monopoly of the resource.
	Comments are hoped for...
	Gotta pack for the SF-LUG meeting.

	bliss
