According to dumblob: # I just came across Technoethical (https://tehnoetic.com/ ) and was # surprised by the range of libre products they sell.
Looking at the laptops, they're all refurbished Thinkpads with Intel inside. I would perform a libre installation on such hardware if someone already owned it, but I would certainly never consider selling it as anything close to libre hardware. It has been said that the software makes all the difference, but Intel ucode really is a thing, and the stuff they have hidden in their CPU's for years makes libre software pretty much moot. Just my 2 Satoshi. Sent from the end
