Incredible... This is really saddening.
Does this "only" work on windows ? What about account priviledges in
GNU/Linux? How does it know exactly which computer to connect to? Does
the "client" have a certain address to access it ?
On another note, I know anything with txt and vpro is just a nightmare
regarding privacy. So one would need to get a processor which doesn't
have these "features", for example the i5-3210M
(http://ark.intel.com/products/67355/Intel-Core-i5-3210M-Processor-%283M-Cache-up-to-3_10-GHz-rPGA).
I would LOVE to order a laptop from thinkpenguin, but I'm in Europe,
which means +300-400 euros in shipping & handling, taxes, etc.
The only other laptop I've seen that includes a similar chip without
these "features" is the L430. Any experiences installing trisquel
(linux-libre kernel without proprietary software, binary blobs, etc.) on
that one?
