I want to get some machines for the home network, and I want them to be

I would be happy to pay some business in Melbourne to build it from
parts and test it, and ideally be available for warranty support.
For a while I've been wanting also a machine that supports free BIOS
software like Coreboot or PMON. I've considered the following all-in-one
motherboard from VIA:

Which is listed as supported by Coreboot:
http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Motherboards#Mini-ITX_.2F_Micro-ITX_.2F_Nano-ITX
Or alternatively, I've considered the Lemote Yeelong's (fully-free
laptop's) sister, Fuloong:

This doesn't help with the support side of things, though, which I
realise is the more important part of the question.
