It was his incorrect assumption that a similar problem caused by
commercial software would be grounds for litigation. I assume it was
correct to infer "commercial software" when the original poster referred
to "PeeCee sodtware". However, I agree (stated such in my reply to the
original poster) that the nvram corruption should have been flagged in
the relevant install docs.
