That was mostly IBM's doing and goes well beyond the purview of the ISA specifically. x86 doesn't really define that you "must use a BIOS/UEFI/etc." You can't boot, for instance, a standard copy Windows or Linux on a Sony PS4 (which is not actually a PC compatible, even though it almost seems like one) without ten billion asterisks and hacks. |
