TCPC General Meeting

BIOS vs UEFI: What’s the Diff?

A question arose at the August meeting asking about UEFI, so it seemed like a good topic for a meeting to discuss the differences between BIOS and UEFI.

We’ll explore what the terms BIOS and UEFI stand for, what roles they play in starting up and running a computer system, the history of each and what features they each support as well as  what limitations they might have.

All input, additions, corrections, and anecdotal experience from attendees are welcome.
