@bunniestudios Something that occured to me, since origional (non-IME) coreboot laptops won't receive microcode for Spectre: How hard would it be to re-layout Novena to fit in place of a thinkpad motherboard? I've seen people making new thinkpad motherboards, so I thought I'd ask
The easier thing to do, assuming you're not trying to target one of the insanely ultra-thin laptops, is to pick up a SOM and build a breakout board. SolidRun and Variscite both make http://i.MX SOMs that take care of the high-speed routing for you.
