Clearly they think they can handle modern hardware. Makes me wonder
why the coreboot folks have thrown up [their?] hands and declared
defeat.
If I understand it right, on newer Intel systems Coreboot is limited to
only calling closed-source, proprietary initialization procedures versus
older systems where it handles the entire process (less some binary blobs).
Maybe they see something they can no longer stomach.
I bought my first AMD system this week.
Welcome to the club! Hope they don't continue following Intel's path
with closed-source PSP etc.
I agree. But even so, AMD are better by some noticeable margin.
Intel... OMGWTF. With the 'VISA' exploit they're contradicting the
researchers, and with 'Foreshadow' they said app programmers should deal
with it.
BTW, like some other Qubers I got a G505s with the AMD A10. Still need
to figure out how to flash it.
