Default MSI trials EFI BIOS replacement
Tefra's PC Specs
MSI has announced plans to trial the supposed future BIOS replacement, EFI (Extensible Firmware Interface). The EFI specification was primarily intended to support Intel's past and future architectures under one umbrella, but has taken sometime to come be adopted by manufacturers.

Intel's biggest EFI win was Apple, which has implemented EFI throughout the Intel Mac range. EFI is a specification that defines a software interface between an operating system and platform firmware. EFI is intended as a significantly improved replacement of the old legacy BIOS firmware interface used by modern PCs.

Hmmm, I wonder what the " Significantly improved replacement" part means?
