I'm kind of disappointed they are trying to sell this before they have actually gotten a free BIOS and firmware for those locked down pieces. Without those, this laptop is no different than any other laptop that I can buy and load with free open-source software.
Probably the closest I've seen to a truly open source and free laptop is Bunnie's Novena.
