Hi Zbigniew
The ASUS KGPE-D16 can not be left unnoticed and it has been mentioned a couple
of times in the "Best Laptop For Qubes" thread already.
You can even buy machines based on this MB built and flashed to your wishes:
*
https://minifree.org/product/libreboot-d16/
*
https://store.vikings.net/libre-friendly-hardware/vikings-d16-workstation
Pro:
* More than 16 GiB RAM with ease. 16 GiB is basically the entry option for
these machines ;-)
* Supported and on the HCL
* Runs Libreboot
* No management engine
* ECC RAM
Contra:
* Price
* Power consumption
* No Qubes OS 4.0 support I assume?
I guess this choice is easy :) ?
