Are x200 thinkpads compatible with Trisquel out of the box (wifi included)?

I've found one for a rather good price, and I'm really thinking about picking it up, but I already have a T60 that I use (which, unfortunately, requires an external usb wifi antenna). If the X200 works out of the box, that would be pretty cool. Where can I find info on it, or is anybody here has this device, and can let me know how compatible it is?
You dont need any answer to this post since we have already a website about hardware compatibility with free software: https://h-node.org/hardware/catalogue/en
The answer https://h-node.org/notebooks/catalogue/en/1/1/undef/undef/undef/undef/compatibility/undef/undef/X200 gives about Wi-Fi on X200 is that it probably will not work out of the box, unless it went through a vendor selling RYF hardware: (s)he switches the card, I guess.

H-node can be incomplete sometimes though.
Just something to mention.
Maybe its on track most of the time, but not always.
For example, does it list some of the newest libreboot devices and how much they can be used without non-free software?
If no, then clearly it has some gaps.
PS, I understand that they are considered non-free on the bios level by you guys so don't bother to tell me that. ;)
