I wanted to find the RAM specs such as frequency and interleaving. Here's a few things I tried:
Code:username@username-T400:~$ sudo lshw -c memory
[sudo] password for username:

# dmidecode 3.3
Getting SMBIOS data from sysfs.
SMBIOS 3.0 present.My gut tells me it's the fault of Libreboot. If so, I'd enjoy an explanation as my search engine skills fail me.
Ended up opening the laptop and looking at the stickers on the RAM.
