Do you have a source for that?
This would really be a game changer. Unfortunately, you need a really great number of units, that building your own custom laptop hardware is feasible. I really which System76 success with that.
I always thought, if Dell were smart, they would do their own Linux-based brand, where they would reuse parts from mainline Dell. Kind of how they produce gaming laptops.
- commoner 5y agoIn November 2019, System76 announced that it would start designing and developing laptops in-house starting January 2020. The development process was estimated to take 2-3 years. The first generation of System76’s in-house desktop line (Thelio) took over 2 years to develop. - Article: https://www.forbes.com/sites/jasonevangelho/2019/11/20/system76-will-start-designing-and-building-its-own-linux-laptops-beginning-january-2020/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/jasonevangelho/2019/11/20/syste... - HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21586422 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21586422 If you have any suggestions for the laptop design, System76 is collecting feedback here: https://github.com/system76/laptop-suggestions https://github.com/system76/laptop-suggestions
