    Same for the e1705/9400. Fixes/Enhancements:
    1. Fixed an issue that system intermittently hangs during boot up to DOS repeatedly. (Dell misspelled repeatedly)
    2. Updated Dell COPYRIGHT year to 2007.

    Nothing that matters to me. But I'll still update.

    Think I'll hold out for a bit on it...kind of like prescription drugs...seems fine for a while, but then 10 years down the road, they figure out it causes cancer or something.

    Let us know of any issues that pop up, or if things run smoothly. ;)
