How would I make my system's bios remotely accessible? I also use windows, and do on my laptop and may want to implement password protection when I go away for school with the machine so not just anyone messes with my machine. I wish I could dump windows altogether, but audio stuff is better supported their in an accessible form than linux these days. Why kirk put the awesome project on hold in favor of aardor which is x based I don't know, but eudora won't work in linux, another habit based program I use basically for no particular reason but that I have for a few years now.
