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.

System76 and other linux hardware manufactures make coreboot computers, it might get a bit expensive than buy some old thinkpad but I suppose if you're searching for this you have the budget

I'd like to stay inside the $400 mark TBH, and maybe running a T440p might not be the worst idea. Thanks
