Macs don't have BIOSes. They have an equivalent in ROM, but it's not user-accessible.
Welcome to the mac!!
You have never noticed how on a pc to install a cd-rom or extra hard disk you have to configure it in the BIOS?
Have you ever noticed that on a mac you dont?
This is where mac was SEVERAL YEARS ahead of PCs. PCS HAVENT AUTO-CONFIGURED YET!! (last time i checked)
The older Macs use what is called a ToolBox stored in ROM. In effect, part of the OS is stored in the ROM, unlike a PC which uses the BIOS to test hardware and simply act as a bootloader.
One reason why macs do not have a 640KB memory roof and they can maintain ramdisks during a reboot. (Warm reboot)
Classics actually have the whole os in rom
