G505S (coreboot AMD no-PSP laptop) being sold for a good price, 40 mins left

[Ivan Ivanov]

Mike found a good condition G505S with top A10-5750M CPU preinstalled,
being sold for a good price:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/LENOVO-G505S-LAPTOP-WINDOWS-10-AMD-A10-WEBCAM-4GB-5...

Initially we wanted to share this link with our friend, but sadly he
is not online in the moment and unlikely to come in time, so now
sharing with everyone! Hopefully it could end up in the hands of a
fellow coreboot'er. Please tell others if you'd like to bid, to avoid
a bidding war between each other ;-)

Neat. I've seen a few of these pop up every couple of months.
A lot of them seems to be sold from the UK, dunno why.

That's because a supply of G505S has been distributed by Lenovo
unevenly between the different countries. Also, the majority (if not
all of) the G505S of UK seem to lack the discrete graphics (= internal
LA-A092P motherboard), although it doesn't matter much since the
performance of integrated vs discrete is similar for this laptop.
