This is on the roadmap. A 'Librem Box' with similar specs to our laptop
but probably 8th gen cpu. See here and issue #1:
https://source.puri.sm/Products/Librem_Hardware/librembox. With higher
MOQs required, the rack server is taking precedence. I think the easy
part for the Librem Box is the hardware. I'll leave the hard part to you
guys ;)    <https://source.puri.sm/Products/Librem_Hardware/librembox>

Great! For now, looking at using a 1U rackmount Xeon-D motherboard with
Coreboot and a Librem Key thrown into the mix. Any suggestions or ideas
you would like to see, please throw them my way! More to come...
