Once we get these, I will very likely purchase DDR3 modules to max the memory out (which means 8 GB for this model). There are several reasons for this, but the most important reason is that the longer you wait, the less mainstream these modules become, the more the price may go up again. A check on sites suggests that one can get the memory maxed out for some ~80 euros now.

Please put down your name here if you are potentially interested to order that too (AFTER we get the laptops) and I'll do some more research work on a good price.

  • ultratux
  • wotwot would for atleast one of them, depending on price
  • JinX
  • Egeltje (hack42)
  • realitygaps
  • dosch (idem wotwot)
  • Narya 2x (depending on the price)
  • Julf

Coreboot?

Seems to work! http://www.sublab.org/wiki/coreboot-x201/
