Speaking of ACPI and problems, which are commented on in this article, is this Intel announcement of open sourcing the BIOS something new?
EFI/Tiano uses ACPI so you don't get out of that loop.
That Intel will be releasing code is new, although there have been some sympathies in that direction. I'm really not interested until they actually release something.
