Is the Mac a PC 2578
Not all of them. Itanium systems don't use BIOS but they're clones. Not at all but Apple adopted the technology none the less. Maybe you haven't been listening or reading...
No my posts here consist of me saying that Macs are now clones.
EFI and BIOS have nothing to do with it. In fact I hear from some sources that EFI has been used on PCs in the past. EFI may not even catch on since BIOS functions have evolved so much. I have a computer with a BIOS that requires you to put it in "compatibility mode" just so you can boot Windows 98 from a CD. That is a pretty big departure from the old BIOS.
In fact it is. I just don't get it. Apple says the Macs are also "PCs" and they make them. I guess they know better than you. You guys need to stop trying to spin and just accept the fact. The fact being the PC vs. Mac wars are over, the PC won.
