That is a really good question, which I am asking since a couple of
days. The better I could find are those selled by ThinkPenguin [0], but
they do not use LibreBoot and we don't know (at least I don't know) if
there are bad backdoors in their hardware.
There is also the EOMA68 micro-desktop [1], but I don't know if/when/how
we can buy it, and if/how it is powerful, and if it uses LibreBoot.
Unfortunately, it seems to me that at the moment, the best we can do is
to build our own computer, using pieces of fsf-recommanded
libre-friendly hardware. But we (at least I) don't necessarily have the
time nor the skills to do that.
Good luck !
