It's got about the same specs as my main webdev laptop -- which is a Thinkpad X200t -- with a modern GPU.
It's got a mechanical keyboard and a trackball!
- drewzero1 5y agoLove it! I've really, really wanted one of those for a couple years now but it would be a huge break from my policy of buying used machines after the depreciation curve flattens out. With the limited market and designed longevity of the Reform I'm not expecting to find them on the used market any time soon. (Plus I'd really love to get the kit and put it together myself!)

- amatecha 5y agoI'll probably get an MNT Reform when the LS1028A SoM is available[0]. Though I mean, it's tempting regardless. I picked up a couple super-cheap old ThinkPads in the meantime to tide me over, especially to "plan ahead" for my MNT Reform setup haha :) [0] https://source.mnt.re/reform/mnt-reform-layerscape-ls1028a-som https://source.mnt.re/reform/mnt-reform-layerscape-ls1028a-s...
