So Ive had my computer bugging me to install this update for some time now. Ive been avoiding it as im not sure of the implications on a non apple computer. Its assuming based on my smbios that its an early 2011 mbp. What should I prepare for if i let it install or should I just ignore it?

It will do nothing as your computer is not Mac. You can make it go away if you update your BIOS version in config.plist/SMBIOS. You will need to find out what version the update would change the Mac firmware to.
 
looks like
Code:
sudo softwareupdate --ignore MacBookProEFIUpdate2.7
worked in terminal. Good enough for now. Not a biggy at all, but itll be nice not to have the nag pop up anymore.
