>inb4 no compatible system
You can literally get a ThinkPad X200 for $50 on ebay
>inb4 no beaglebone/pi for external flashing
You can get an X60 for internal flashing or use a Libreboot flashing service (about $50) on ebay for X200/T400
>inb4 that hardware is ancient

Windows users are smarter than Mac OS X users because even though they use a monkey OS just like mactoddlers, they at least spend money on hardware carefully and don't consider themselves special snowflakes.
