Well, yes I believe the consumer has certian "rights" when you buy something. I also think that word is WAY over used. Technically, you dont BUY nor OWN the OS, you license it.

And your "rights" are vastly different when you own something vs license it.

well when you purchased your Microprocessor and installed it you agreed to the terms of sell which is not to modifiy the processor but here you are violating terms of purchase by overclocking the processor which imight add you feel you have a right too!. See intell and amd and the others companies feel you have no right to do since they make faster cpus Why buy a 3 ghz processor when you can tweak a 2.8 to run at 3.0 but since processor company's have no control over the bios' companies you can tweak your hearts out since they had no way to to enforce their policies now they do it is built into their microprocessors and now in the operating system this can be done in a simple chipset update meaning they can roll back your tweaks either at boot up or shut down that is what DEP is all about DATA Execution Prevention!. they are not enforcing it today but look out they might tommorrow!. now the industry is going to push DEP on the Bios Watch and see AMD held out for a long time putting the DEP chip (palidan) on their dyes only been about a year or so when they caved to the big computer manufacturers by refusing to add they refused to buy till they did so. hp is the first to marry all three in their prouducts and they no longer give oem operating disks to their custumers. only mirror images of the factory hard drive used to put the os on the their products and yes there is a different bios for each operating system they sell and a different one for each system they sell. you now have to buy the OS from Hp and pay for the BIOs flash for the operating system you want. which again is going to be a disk image with all the crapware on it. and i might add some the warez you cannot uninstall or you will have hardware problems see they add a software compliance package in the small restore partition of the hardrive and yes the file is called QPW3.6.exe this is the version for my laptop. you uninstall slingbox you get a tvtuner error that need to be repaired funny there is no hardware tunner on the lap top. dvd burner will quit either all together or works halfway if you uninstall the burning sofware. i even went as far as fdisking and doing a clean install of microsoft retail os it worked but not like it was supposed to lol but then again the bios is for hp vista64 not microsoft vista64 lol now tell me about those helio's again!!.
