Recommended CPU's
I don't know anyone with a non SE CPU (or 6328) that is satisfied with their performance level and that turns them away from coreboot.
The idea of this is for a recommended CPU's list, not simply a list of compatible CPU's which one can easily obtain with their favorite search engine.
It is difficult to find a list of "good" G34/C32 CPU's, and a 6272 is the furthest one can be from that category.

TPM
Despite the TPM being a proprietary module the CRTM is owner controlled according to raptor engineering.
Obviously one needs a compatible module (one would think that someone with the intelligence to install coreboot would know this but they don't so thanks for adding that)
