It is nothing new! This is NOT "Open Source Firmware" it is shimboot coreboot - all the hardware initiation work is done via FSP and coreboot is just there as a wrapper layer for FSP. More misdirection from intel trying to strangle their IBM OpenPOWER competitors in the crib now that they see there is a real market for owner controlled hardware. Buy a TALOS 2 if you want legitimately owner controlled, real FOSS, libre, "open source firmware" hardware that is both fast and brand new. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
