btw ThinkPad X280 was tested on Libreboot recently and works. I'm probably going to start offering it soon, alongside T480 and T580.
The X280 doesn't take moduled RAM, unlike T480/T580 which can both do 64GB. Meanwhile, X280 has 8GB soldered RAM.
But it's a nice small machine, very portable. I use one at home with OpenBSD -current (and Arch Linux).
I don't list X280 officially yet, but you can like, just ask me. I do weird/custom orders all the time so just email me if you want this one.

@libreleah I've always been wondering, where do you get the hardware? These are not recent releases, are they?

@libreleah I have a version of the x280 with 16 GB soldered RAM, so it can be more than 8 GB.

@libreleah My main machine is an X280. 😁 Upgraded last year from my X230. Not as good keyboard but nice little machine.
