I set this to 'mid' because this appears to be a relatively small, United States-based operation that might sell globally but which has little verifiably distinguishable about it. If the notability claims are supported, I would recommend bumping this up to 'high'. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 14:51, 13 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

That was not the source that you cited in the article. Uncle G (talk) 15:50, 14 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

As it is verifiable I believe there is no reason for excluding it now. Pgr94 (talk) 16:14, 14 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

WinBIOS date of 1998

Latest comment: 15 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The article suggests that the GUI Win 3.x-like BIOS was introduced in 1998, yet I had a motherboard with such AMI BIOS back in 1994. --Azarien (talk) 16:40, 29 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Removed section

Latest comment: 8 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I removed the "Service processor and IPMI" section that's been unsourced since at least 2011. I'll continue attempting to find sources for it, but the search is complicated by the number of mirrors of this content that have been reproduced around the internet. If soruces are found, the content could probably use some minor reworking before restoring, as it reads a bit press-releasey at the moment.
