Thanks for the graphics!

A few more European companies shipping GNU/Linux pre-installed worth knowing about:

* MNT Research GmbH: https://shop.mntre.com/t/hardware/reform (see @mntmn )
* Vikings GmbH (refurbished laptops + coreboot/libreboot): https://shop.vikings.net
* Minifree (UK, founded by Leah Rowe @libreleah, refurbished laptops + libreboot), https://minifree.org

The European scene is bigger than people realize!

@luca @mntmn @libreleah Thanks for the list. Indeed, there are already quite a few European companies active in computer hardware production, and the field has much potential for further development. Someone on Reddit also brought to my attention Skikk from the Netherlands, and Kubb from France. (I guess that calls for a expanded graphic, at some point).

@Enea90 Are any of these options cheap?

@OliviaVespera Slimbook and Tuxedo have some cheaper options available, from what I understood.
