Our recommendation for some time has been a mix -- arm64 client devices (laptops, tablets, etc.) and ppc64el servers. With those two, you can replace x86 entirely if you don't have proprietary software in your environment.
With all due respect, this is the discussion about Coreboot going into The Right Direction! This is what I actually aimed for. :-)
Well, to bring this even further back on topic, it's an open secret that the POWER8/POWER9 IPL process is rather bloated. It's all open, but bloated.
I'd love to see a coreboot port done in earnest to POWER9. We have all the information we need to do it, just need buy-in from serious developers. Might even be some free hardware in it for interested people....
