Wait a sec, when the timeout is zero, don't you get access to the

I always thought that was grub's behaviour, not my PC's behaviour...
With an old Compaq machine, the BIOS errors with a 'Stuck key' message
if I mash any of the modifiers. This stops the boot before GRUB. Granted
it's running F11, but some BIOS's don't like keys being mashed at boot.
