What was the last BIOS for 380z?

Does anyone know?

What's the benefit of flashing it vs the original BIOS?

Thanks,

Lot's of stuff still available on the website. You need the 4 digit product type (bottom of the laptop, either 2635 or 2636) to get the exact software, product info., ect...

Hi Joe,

Is this the "30" BIOS?

I don't own a 380...

I only knew where to find the information.

Since the latest BIOS released was IGETWW30, I would assume that it's the one mentioned above.
