Hey. Could you add the advanced menu in the next BIOS update (at least on new laptops)? Many users have long been asking for this. For security, you can hide the menu and you can access with hotkeys for one session.

Sorry, but OEMs lock out the advanced BIOS options to prevent customers from making changes to options that can destabilize or otherwise damgage the PC -- and then send it back for repair under warranty claiming they did nothing to it.
