Renesas ? So it's the one that you said you can get all nessesary documentation out of?
So we have a winner! A laptop with an Intel chipset and Renesas controller.
I remember you said you want to choose a rather new notebook.
We'd have to check what Panasonic CF-18, CF-28 and CF-29 use, as these are the newest rugged Toughbooks, and might be a great choice if they still use Renesas controllers.
Here I have a list of all toughbook models I could spot:

Althrough I cannot afford anything newer than CF-27 out of that list, so I would have to wait several years to use your LinuxBIOS.
Off topic - the Toughbooks had great cases. I recall someone testing one a few years ago by shooting it at a basketball hoop and it landing on concrete and it still ran fine.
I bought it because I damage most standard notebooks quickly, and cellphones too. I use Nokia 6250 rugged cellphone, after about 7 other cellphones didn't live more than several months in my hands.
