    I was looking at a Gatewya M505 on eBay to use as an Emulator PC and after looking into it discovered it's a rebranded Gigabyte N601 laptop, can the M505 be flashed with the Gigabyte N601 bios seeing as they are supposedly 100% identical minus the branding and bios?

    I take the lack of response as no one has tried.

    I will give it a shot I guess and let my results be known.
