The lecture on the booting of a computer was very interesting. Learned a new acronym, MBR (Master boot record), and reminded of what POST stood for.
Unfortunately lately, the computers I've been buying always cover over the POST and so all I generally get to see is a big ACER advertisement every time I turn the computer back on. I realize it's able to be turned off, however I'm too lazy for that.
Back when I was big into overclocking my computer hardware I spent a lot of time messing with the blue BIOS screen. Generally I don't have to use it at all anymore, as college has reduced my ability to buy new parts.
