I'm OK with snarfing up some NVRAM, as long as we have some way to check "yes, there are NN bytes of NVRAM architected for our use".

Wouldn't be the first time I've misunderstood what code is really doing. ;) --==_Exmh_1284486875_4681P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Exmh version 2.5 07/13/2001 iD8DBQFMj7bbcC3lWbTT17ARAk/wAJoDDs5RCxZccBN6cBe8Rit8xVeiyACeOnIc Rbr04Q2i7bj0ViEYOdIrM6U= =v2SF -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==_Exmh_1284486875_4681P--
