[coreboot] What do each of the letters B...? , L...? , O...? , B...? represent in the acronym BLOB ?

[Zoran Stojsavljevic]

I'm surprised you (John Lewis) answered as what you you have answered. Did
you ever hear about: management (styles)?

You would think someone at an INTEL address would already know what a ME is
(you'll be surprised, by old timers in there not having idea NOT only about
ME, rather about many INTEL invented things), and is therefore being
rhetorical. :P

I guess, INTEL is just an random example I have picked. ;-)
