Has Anything Replaced Open Firmware Password?

It's a loaded question you're using in someways. If what you mean is, "Is there an Open Firmware equivalent for Intel-based Macs?" then the answer is yes. See the following Apple KB article for full details: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1352

YES, that's what I meant. I have a late 2010 MacBook Pro w/ Core-i7 CPU

I read the article and I find confusing info. In one paragraph it says Intel Macs use EFI and in the following paragraph It says "Any Intel Based Mac" can use Open Firmware*

"All Intel-based Macintosh computers support firmware password protection.

The following Apple computers can use the Open Firmware Password application:
▪ iMac (Slot Loading) and later models of G3 iMac
▪ iMac (Flat Panel) and later models of G4 iMac
▪ iMac G5 and later models of G5 iMac
▪ iBook - all models, both G3- and G4-based
▪ eMac - all models
▪ PowerBook (FireWire)
▪ PowerBook G4 and later models of G4 PowerBook
▪ Power Mac G4 (AGP Graphics) and later models of G4 Power Mac
▪ Power Mac G4 Cube - all models
▪ Power Mac G5 and later models of G5 Power Mac
▪ Any Intel-based Mac*
▪ MacBook Air: see MacBook Air: Recovering a lost EFI firmware password"

So do I use Open Firmware or EFI?


"Apple make up your mind please..."

Are you saying I can or can't use Open Firmware Password on a MacBook Pro Late 2010?
