    I bought a new Lenovo notebook win 10pre- installed, to use at travel.I use my desktop Linux everyday.I am not a fan of win10.But so far windows 10 is working without any problems.Lenovo Vantage alerts me to update the Bios.I always hesitate updating the bios.It says it is a critical update.This is the change information below.I do not know what the modified Type 11 string means.If it is not security related I think I should stay with the old version.Googled ''Modified: Add SMBIOS Type11 string'' but honestly could not understand what it meant.

    I'm not sure what it means either. As it says it's critical, I'd go ahead and install it.
