Since the page,

  http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q261/1/86.ASP

refers to this being a result of a response on the part of an
Award/Unicorn BIOS, should MicroSoft be faulted?  Wouldn't this also
affect a machine with the same BIOS even if it is running Linux?

And, if so, what piece of music would Linux play, if anything?
