15" Macbook Pro mid-2010, 16GB RAM upgrade possible?

Hi all,

I've been looking around all the support forums and questions asked etc..

But I can't find a definitive answer about support for the 15" mid-2010 MBP being able to use 16GB (and be stable).

I'm aware that it's perfectly fine on the 13" model, however I have the 15" i7.

From what I've been reading it's because of the motherboard/Graphics chip/EFI BIOS incompatibiity with anything more than 8GB. (Which is silly really, as the same Intel core i7 can have up too at least 32GB of RAM on any none-Mac system.)

Have Apple not pushed out an EFI BIOS update that could allow the use of 16GB RAM?

If this has been clearly answered elsewhere (and I haven't found it), feel free to point me in the right direction.

Thanks, Jon.
