I apologize ... I couldn't resist :rotfl:

edit: kidding aside, those links that jimbuna posted are interesting ... I've always wanted to try it, imagining some outstanding performance gain, but as one article says, I've always been way to scared to try it (and still am). If you try it, let us know how it goes.
BIOS updates rarely give substantial performance updates unless you have previously unsupported hardware that was introduced in the BIOS. Unless the changelogs indicate something you really want... better to not fix it if it ain't broke.

On a sidenote, Vista makes it pretty easy to swap out your BIOS now. You do it right in the OS and don't even need a bootable diskette. It's great.
