Is there a newer model of desktop/laptop/motherboard which supports Coreboot? (lemmy.world)

As far as I can see, the T440p is the latest Thinkpad to support Coreboot/skulls.

If I wanted something newer (say, something from 2019-2022 or so) under $400, what could I even get? I want to run my own choice of linux distribution on it, so most chromebooks are out of the question (also I'd like something more powerful and upgradeable).

Thanks.

Thanks, I should have thought of this before. Used System76 laptops are a great idea, and I'm sure I can find spare parts.

I don't like how Chromebooks restrict me from running a different OS (especially in the newer generations), but other than that, yes they are a great idea.
