Interested in a libre-friendly, built to order desktop/workstation computer or server?

The Vikings D16 mainboard is a high-end, server/workstation-grade x86 mainboard that is certified with FSF's RYF (Respects Your Freedom) certificate.

Thanks to the work of Raptor Engineering/Coreboot it comes with absolutely no proprietary software, firmware blobs or backdoors, unlike all other x86 server or workstation systems.
The Vikings D16 is a reliable, server-grade mainboard coming with a 2-year E.U. legal guarantee included (conditions see vkgs.io/eulegalguarantee) and is a refurbished, "as new" item which undergoes a 24h stress test before it leaves on its way to you.

The Free Software Foundation's "Respects Your Freedom" hardware product certification

The Vikings D16 mainboard laptop fully meets the criteria for the FSF's hardware endorsement program and was certified on 2017-03-03

"The desire to own a computer or device and have full control over it, to know that you are not being spied on or tracked, to run any software you wish without asking permission, and to share with friends without worrying about Digital Restrictions Management (DRM) —these are the desires of millions of people who care about the future of technology and our society.

Unfortunately, hardware manufacturers have until now relied on close cooperation with proprietary software companies that demanded control over their users. As citizens and their customers, we need to promote our desires for a new class of hardware — hardware that anyone can support because it respects your freedom."
