Re: Not finding later bios version on an R630

Well there you go. Whomped with the DUH cane. I searched for that version,
CLEARLY POORLY, via google->Various Dell web site links. I must have been
hitting the r620 version, which stated it was out of date. R620s are at
2.5.2 Next time will walk Dell's site directly.

Thanks very much sir! Apologies all for the spam
