The headline contradicts the first paragraph. The change is that a PC is not required to support disabling UEFI. Presumably in the short term they will all continue doing so out of inertia. In the longer term we have to encourage them to keep doing so. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/

Several people seem to be confusing UEFI with Secure Boot. You don't need to use Secure Boot to use UEFI. I boot my Debian systems this way. If hardware vendors don't allow disabling of secure boot, that isn't UEFI's fault.
