On Intel CPUs, I betcha they're using rapidboot, not coreboot. That's
just a very uninformed guess.

I have to like this ... it means FOSS is going to  be *most* of what
used to be the BIOS.

I wonder if they'll offer source for it, since it's mostly GPL'ed
stuff. If so we could also offer it as a coreboot payload :-) Maybe we
should talk to them about having buildrom support it. They should like
that as it is more market penetration.
