>branded Clevo's
I think it's a bit unfair to simply say they are "branded Clevo's". There was an interview about "right to repair" that I can't find right now where one of the founders of System76 addressed this and it sounds like they put a bit more effort into their hardware (and specifically, the accompanying middleware/firmware) than slapping some stickers on a Clevo.
Edit: I still can't find the interview, which was a good one, but I found this [1] earlier comment from someone who works there.
