In his defense, you did exactly that which you are accusing him of, not
providing "technical" arguments. "Oh look at this laptop which I've
apparently never used but I'd recommend you look into anyway."

"I hear they're quite nice, and are running coreboot straight from the
factory." It sounds like pandering to ideology without technical merit.


As for my recommendation, I've had some decent success with Panasonic
Toughbooks (CF-30 and CF-31 so far). I'll see if I can bring up a dmesg
when I get a chance. They are physically sound units too.

Most stuff seems to work with 6.3 + syspatches on the CF-31 but I can't
work out how to disable the gestures (I don't seem to have a
"mouse.tp.tapping" variable when using wsconsctl(8)).
