EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THOSE PCs WERE MISSING A BIOS CHIP.

This is the most absurd accusation I have ever heard.

I have toured the Dell facilities. They NEVER, EVER ship a system without testing first.
Without Bios it cannot be booted and tested.
If they were shipped without Bios it was due to Intel shipping an incomplete Motherboard, Which I find ludicrous.. Bios chips are soldered in at the factory not At Dell. No way Intel could do this,
as they could not test the Motherboard before shipping.

There is know way this story can be accurate.

A bad Bios Maybe, No Bios Impossible.
