>>28004612 I'm not Stallman. It's just that Coreboot is infinitely more capable than all closed BIOS and EFI.

>>28004656 Can't handle the truth? Face it, your BIOS sucks and you don't even have the source code.

>>28004584 Not sold anymore and bulldozer is not really current gen when a fucking pentium probably beats it at single threaded stuff

AMD doesn't even give you the sourcecode to their CPUs microcode updates which is needed to fix bugs WHERE IS YOUR GOD NOW, AMDFAGS?

>>28004745 Bulldozers do fine in grown-up tasks like kernelbench which is representative for compiling any large software project.

>>28004752 It's still better than Intel who don't give you the source code for the microcode AND no free BIOS. AMD is the lesser evil, objectively.

>>28004633 Firepros rip up Quadros in raw power, but Quadros have the support of the software devs because nvidia did what jewtel did and paid them all to use quadros.
