Excellent news!

Good stuff.

In that case, it depends what OS the PC boots, as I understand it.
I've not tried "both" mode on mine. When it was in BIOS mode with
Win10 and Ubuntu Unity installed on MBR partitions in legacy-boot
mode, it acted like a BIOS PC: you saw some messages before the OS
started, could press the blue "ThinkVantage" key to get into the BIOS,
etc.

In UEFI mode it booted straight into Windows without messages and
there was no easy way to get into the "BIOS" setup except from Win10's
troubleshooting menu.

Suffice to say I put it back into BIOS mode and there I plan to leave it.
