Question is I have 16 GX270's that will not PXE boot to an image server and I found that this directly the result of the onboard nic, I was just wondering if Dell is planning on an upgrade to the bios that may fix this issue. The problem being the nic has no way to work with a helper address on the network.

Excuse me Wrong version of bios flash. Again all I want to know is dell planning any update to the GX270 A06 bios flash that may address an upgrade in the area of the Intel Nic?

I could be wrong five minutes from now, but I seriously doubt there will be a newer version BIOS to address the onboard network for any Optiplex earlier than the GX280. The onboard network  is device driven once the system BIOS enables the chipset. I would investigate the chipset manufacturer or Intel for a newer device driver.
