Do OEMs still release modified versions of their Chromebooks with a standard BIOS?

I used to have an x86 Acer "CloudBook" that shipped with Windows and a nice EFI bios. It boots Linux well, and even has an option to disable the windows trusted boot keys, and to use user installed (i.e., grub) keys instead. The hardware seems to be designed to run chrome os, except that it has a standard keyboard.

My only complaint is that I'd like a higher-end version of it.
