 * Oppose: The article reads like a text book right now, which is to say not very encyclopedic. I don't think it will be ready move to the mainspace until it explains the historical context of the PC boot process, isn't written as a study guide and removes all uses of "you" in the text. — Bility (talk) 23:11, 1 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Comment why do you capitalize "BOOT"? It's not an acronym, it's a diminutive for bootstrap. By capitalization guideline, shouldn't this be "PC boot process" ? "Boot process of PCs" would be grammatically correct, since PCs need to be pluralized, though doesn't this article only describe "IBM PCs and compatibles" (vestigial 8/16-bit systems), and not the modern 64-bit systems with the new boot sectors and GPT disks with new BIOS? 70.24.246.151 (talk) 07:46, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
