Downgrading a BIOS to remove a problem the new one introduced is not as easy as upgrading either, so you really have to commit to the new one. If something happens to go wrong when downgrading, which is very possible since it usually involves workarounds like edited BIOS images or experimental tools, then it is really not fun.
Soldered a new BIOS chip into my EeePC 700 2G Surf a while back after a failed downgrade to re-enable a feature they removed. Luckily I was able to request a chip burned with the BIOS I wanted.
