Space between lines. Remove them and it will disappear (though the text will

I do not know about the best Libreboot computer, but an iMac 5,2 flashed with
Libreboot can make for a nice, cheap computer without proprietary software.
The most powerful would be the opteron workstation actually. But that is a
desktop.As for the laptops you might also want to consider the EOMA68 3D
printed laptop. It may not be fast now, but as the EOMA68 cards are upgraded
all you need to upgrade is the card not the whole laptop (pretty
I'll have to rewrite what I said a bit.
People use free software for different reasons.
- Not having arbitrary limitations is one.
- privacy from companies and from governments in case they start going
insane, like in Turkey.
And in all this, some need more power, in order to compute as they
That may be why you think that. Although I may be mistaken. I am not
entirely sure if there is a difference between how much 32 bit and 64 bit eat
up ram.
Enlighten me if I am wrong.
Can someone remind me please why are people buying laptops with 8 gb?
That really depends. For example, I work a lot with software development and
video editing, so I'd like 8GB, but I can survive with 4GB running Plasma 5.
32bit, old laptop, no 64 bit support.
Can someone remind me please why are people buying laptops with 8 gb? And
above all, why do people think 4 gb is "only" 4 gb?
i.e. relative to maximum
So, I just opened all of this:
mousepad, claws mail, evince, TorBB, gimp, goldendict, inkscape, libreoffice
writer, links2, mirage, pidgin,
PS: Why are the redish/yellowish rectangle split?
Thanks.
The latter part, I'll leave to Tehnoetic!

They are pretty sturdily built, so you should be ok. Ask what HDD it has
(you'll probably use that until you get your SSD). Ask if it can write DVD's
- not very important, but it can serve you as a lever in price negotiation.
Ask about screen resolution - the screens vary a lot.
Once you
Thanks for the answers. They pretty much express what I kind of 'felt' or
'figured out'.
At this moment I'm looking at a chance to by a T500 with a t9400 processor.
It's not the best, but maybe it comes in second. I am still waiting for owner
to answer which graphics card it hold and the

I second that opinion. If you manage to get one with a good screen
(1920x1200), with a T9600 processor and with a good quality SSD, this one is
a fairly modern laptop. Or maybe workstation, considering the weight.
If weight is a concern, the T400 is also a
T500 is the most powerful: https://tehnoetic.com/tet-t500
Thanks. That was quite a nice overview.
Still I imagine(d) that someone for sure has an idea - or rather knowledge -
about which machine would be the 'best'.
Have a look at this then:

Most likely, the X or T60 are less powerful than the others (older CPUs
mainly).
Thanks. I have (of course) looked at that list, but - probably due to my lack
of knowledge - I can't figure out from that, which machine/configuration is
most powerful.
I found a list of all configurations of all Thinkpads ever produced
(apparently) but there are literally hundreds of
have a look here: https://libreboot.org/docs/hcl/
As for configuration, it's as good as you can afford.
I find it difficult to figure out, which librebooted computer would have the
"best" specs. Though it might require some reconfiguration, which
configuration of which model would (probably) be the most powerfull computer
with libreboot?
