Hi David, have you looked around on the diy_efi WWW page?  There are
definitions of those acronyms there, plus an archive that goes back to
the very beginning that you can search.  Plus links to other sites,
lists of books, SAE papers, etc.  There's some learning curve, but it
won't be long before you're throwing acronyms around with the best.

Can you turn off sending HTML mail in your mail program?  That's where
the stuff below comes from, and it just takes up space in the archive.
