Hello, You can call me naive, but until today, I could not find only a one user that wants to use FreeBSD and/or LInux AND windows in any machine I mount/sold, and I have mount it by the dozen, servers running FreeBSD, notebooks running a custom version of Arch Linux... In the freeBSD servers, when a user needs windows for some reason mainly access bank account or enterprise small business I use Virtualbox and I offer him NT2003 server (32 bits), windows 7(64) or windows XP(32). all work fine with a server running FreeBSD 9, 16GB of memory, 500GB of zfs mirrored disks. This small server, running on an AMD FX8120 (8cores) processor costs about U$600 and can hold 40 users running on the virtualbox NT 2003... without problem, and the FreeBSD part can hold gnome 2.32, pf, webserver, firewall, dhcp, printer server, scanner, wireless server, vpn, vlan, asterisk for telephony, even a cloud server running on top of apache using webdav... On the notebooks, the Arch linux runs like a charm, very fast.... integrated with the FreeBSD server. if a user needs access to the company software or bank software(that runs only on IE8) a rdesktop session is used (tsclient). Besides the FreeBSD does "diskless" stations too.. So the question: Why or when will I need an secure UEFI boot??? Thank you for ANY comment... Sergio
