Libreboot T500 Quad Core QX9300 16MB Chip - Thonkpeasant

All prices in USD

This is the fastest librebooted laptop you will find on the internet. I currently use one of these machines as my daily driver for school and hobby projects and find that it runs snappy with the latest linux distros. The upgraded ram and SSD lets you benefit from modern performance without the intel management engine or any proprietary firmware.

All of the machines I sell are FULLY encrypted. Most librebooted machines only have an encrypted root partition, but librebooted machines can have an encrypted boot partition as the bootloader is part of the firmware. My machines also come with my custom LUKS-suspend scripts, which encrypt your data when the machine suspends. I can also install these utilities on a linux os of your choice. Don't hesitate to message me before or after a purchase to request a specific setup.

This machine also comes with the latest libreboot build available with my own theme.

This machine is used and shows minimal signs of wear. No noticeable defects impacting use were found. The photos in the listing are representative of the actual machine that will be shipped. Wifi is tested and working on Artix linux. This machine has the extremely fast Core Extreme QX9300 CPU. The machine has been tested fully with the quad core cpu and no issues were found. The quad cpu mod includes physical modification to the motherboard which is not supported by the manufacturer. This unit comes with the battery as well.

This machine uses my custom libreboot builds with all of the latest features from git.

You can find my builds at my github.
