"System76 Open Firmware" not mentioned on website

[secretmango]

It is very unclear if all System76 Laptops, PCs and Servers (apart from ARM ones) use coreboot, specifically the "System76 Open Firmware" Distribution.

Some sites mention "open hardware" without more details, and docs mention the open firmware, including support for disabling the Intel ME.

While Coreboot should be a big selling factor (see Novacustom or other Dasharo products) it is not clearly mentioned.

What is the reason and status here? Which machines do not have the Intel ME disabled?

https://support.system76.com/articles/open-firmware-systems explicitly lists the models that support Open Firmware (which includes Coreboot) and Open EC. Does this not answer your question?

Intel ME being enabled or disabled is not related to whether a system's running Coreboot or not. That being disabled is generally mentioned in the specs on a product's sales page, and can be checked (and sometimes controlled) on physical machines in the UEFI setup utility (the BIOS menu).
