Was half-expecting to see "YA" in front of this laptop's name, because I think we're probably at that point.
Many open source laptops have come before and none really took off. My OLPC XO-1 sits in its bag, waiting...for a day that will probably never come.
Bunnie's Novena Laptop as mentioned in another comment, the Frameworks (which is probably the only one doing...OK, and it's not a Free Software laptop iirc), lots of other little laptop projects started and abandoned or fizzled out.
The best the Linux community has now is a bunch of rebadged Clevos, apparently. It's disheartening.

- abrouwers 3y agoPossibly because linux runs well on many OEM machines, and this niche really isn't needed in the market?
- Rediscover 3y agoAlso, MNT Reform. Love it, though the screen is a bit wide for me. My OLPC XO-1 is still a daily-driver (with an HHKB, yeah I know the keyboard costs more than the laptop, tough!), especially for outside use. https://mntre.com/ https://mntre.com/ ^ MNT
