the "plug and play OS" option in the BIOS refers to whether or not to let
the BIOS or the OS choose the IRQ and other allocations for the PCI and
other busses. Generally speaking, the BIOS is better than *any* OS at
doing this, and this option should always be set to "no" unless you're
having trouble (on any machine, not just the pundit).
