Re: [Trisquel-users] Libreboot with encrypted root partition

[franparpe]

These are wonderful machines, better than some people think. The thinkpad  
gamma was designed to be able to resist harsh conditions like exposure to a  
metal powder environment, high temperatures and so on. They are robust and  
are capable of running during long periods of time without heating up.

GNU/linux users have the advantage of running some of the best low level  
software of the planet: ext4, for instance, try to optimize the number of  
disk-write to improve its lifetime. So, combining a robust machine with  
Trisquel will make a quite durable system.
