Work in progress

Looks like we need some things that are on wikipedia mediawiki [1] but not here or default in 1.12 [2] for this to look good.

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

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

	Release year	Architecture	Boot firmware	Wifi chipset	Video chipset	Links
BeagleBoard from Special Computing	2008	armel	u-boot	-	todo	todo
ThinCan DBE61C-USB	2005	i386	coreboot ^[1]	-	todo	todo

	World	BE	CN	FR	US
BeagleBoard from Special Computing	Yes
ThinCan DBE61C-USB	Yes

World indicates that there is at least one reseller that is willing to ship anywhere in the world as a standard part of their business.

Output from lshw.

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.
