What's with the New A18 Bios?

It's been out a while - it's not available (or wasn't a week ago) through their linux updating site, which I found interesting.

I wouldn't update, and from the change log can see no reason to.. I think it's an attempt to stop people putting in their own modifications to the bios, such as DSDT changes or adding in win7 tables... Otherwise, why put in signing?

Hello Everyone, I just wanted to confirm that it is possible to downgrade from A18 to A17 -

I used the Emergency Bios Recovery Method from the Custom Bios Section:

 

"Put the Recovery Content onto the USB Stick, enable USB as only Boot device in Bios. Turn off your notebook, remove AC and Battery. Press End Key, insert AC - when light goes Green, release End Key, - System Recovers Bios and Reboots with Dell A17 Bios screen,... "

 

Greetings xpeace
