    I can't find anything definitive on whether or not these laptops have TPM chips built in, so I'm hoping someone here can answer for sure. I saw Eurocom explicitly calls out the TPM chip, but Xotic and LPC-Digital do not mention a TPM chip anywhere I've been able to find.

    It's a "factory option".

    When a company like Sager or Eurocom places an order for a particular batch of chassis there are certain options. It's possible the model you are looking at is only available without a TPM chip through those sellers.

    Eurocom models have TPM chips.. All Sager ones don't!

    Confirmed to what TomJGX has said, Sager does not get the TPM chip.

    Dang, ok, guess I need to decide how much I want that chip. I can get multiple quotes without it, but so far only 1 with it.
