It'd be really interesting to know ages of people who already knew this and those who didn't.
BTW, already knew it, 58. But then, I remember computers from the 80s and earlier that had the entire OS set in firmware and were not updateable.
38 and I thought firm meant company. Like the firm that created the software for the hardware.
I'm with you, and still think that's the more likely explanation. Definitely the one that makes more sense.
