Im not sure if i found the Computer you are talking about, but i found a Laptop with the name Lenovo ThinkPad P70
1. The Bios won't be free. I guess you know.2. Your workstation seems to have a thunderbolt. I am not sure, but arent these proprietary?3. Your Graphicscard has an official linux-driver (non-free) and it also seems to have a free Linux driver All in all it seems to be able to run GNU/Linux The questions that remains is, why you would spend that much money on a computer.Unless you do some really extraordinary heavy work on that thing, or plan to run a server for several thousand users, i don't know how a Computer of that price range is going to have an advantage over some consumer high end with an i7 6700K processor. If I found the wrong specs, please give us more details about the machine, and maybe plans on using it.

I am setting this goal that with in the next 3 – 5 years I will have $10,000 AUD saved up to buy a luxury laptop workstation. I want to save up for the absolute best computer that money can buy because I want to have real computing power. :) The computer I am looking at is the Lenovo Think Pad P70, or its future equivalent since I have to save up a lot of money first. I know that by the time that I have saved enough money, there will be a different model available. Now what I want to ask you folks… Assuming I have saved the money needed for this computer, will I be able to run Trisquel or an equivalent fully Free Software OS on it? One thing that sits back in my mind is that WIFI will not work. I don’t want to be dreaming about buying a $10,000 computer if I won’t be able to run Free Software on it. Does anyone have any suggestions or comments?
