I've never had a good System 76 experience - and lordy do I wish I did. I'd like nothing more than to buy a Linux supported laptop from a vendor, and continue to support OSS. I've System76'd, ThinkPengiun'd, etc... and they're all bad. Somehow, System76 continues to chose Clevo or Sagers that are just poorly built, as opposed to the well built kit. Ultimately we just settle on buying great gear from whatever vendor works - and we make it work. Currently we run AlienWare from end-to-end, though I'm using a Surface for my mobile needs.
