Why aren't they working on making a laptop in-house? This seems like a massive diversion and waste of time...

  Pop_OS is a large product of theirs, even if it's open source. It's one of the killer parts of the System76 line up in my opinion.

    How? Is anyone going to buy a System76 laptop over a Dell XPS laptop or a ThinkPad because Pop!OS comes pre-installed instead of Ubuntu/Fedora?
    • deadbunny 5y ago
      Probably not but I can easily imagine people currently using Pop considering System76 for their next laptop.

  They clearly don't have enough money to change their hardware strategy.

    It's not like software development is cheap... They're hiring Rust devs to create a DE instead of working on what their actual business model is: hardware.
