[nmglug] Approved coreboot AMD mobo

[Satsangat Khalsa]

MORE on INTEL AMT chipset and  vPRO technology or can a bunch of dumb
two-leggeds really fend of the coming of "Skynet"

What about ARM processor based machines?  It's a Brit corp but, maybe, they
don't have the same goals of world domination that Intel harbors.
They could market the first "ARMed Breadbox"

Sorry

Sans coreboot, what about an OS solution?.  I've never loaded a
gentoo-based OS, because they are time consuming and slower to optimize.
But what about a Gentoo-based distro on an AMD mobo?.  Specifically, I'm
wondering about Sabayon or Calculate.  The advantage might be in their
source code approach to the software.  Originally, google employed
"portage" because It allowed for very fine control of which services are
installed and running.
