Please help

Please add to this list, and speak up if you see something that you know is non-free!

Desktops

Definition

These systems at minimum should have:

  • The ability to work stand-alone - no reliance on other computers being available
  • Libre boot firmware (BIOS)
  • No components that can not be replaced by a person with a screwdriver that require drivers with binary blobs to function
    • Usually wifi adapters and graphics adapters are the issues here
  • Not make an insane amount of noise or have a form factor that is aimed at the server market

Machines to evaluate now

Machines to evaluate if they ever become generally available in the US market

  • Lemote Fuloong Mini - not available outside of china to the general public as far as I know - might be possible to get if you are a hacker and contact them directly.
  • ThinCan DBE63 - should be available in Q2 or Q3 2009.
