We considered it! Early in architecture, we had the CODEC on the headphone jack daughterboard instead of on the mainboard. It introduced a bunch of interface complexity, so we dropped that. In retrospect, it would have prepared us well fo

Yep, it should work the same in Ubuntu as it does in Windows. this is actually different than the Realtek CODEC, which did have some functionality that the Windows driver enabled that the Linux one didn't (like mic beamforming, though

Luckily we all went through 101, 201, and some grad courses in building and scaling hardware the hard way in our previous companies. If not for that, we probably wouldn't have been able to ship anything in 2021.

We started with Expansion Cards because they are they simplest both for us to release a documentation package around and for a third party to develop. We will be expanding out from there though.

We hope to see others come along, but it’s not easy to transform a large business built around a replacement cycle into one centered on longevity. There are at least encouraging signs of some OEM’s becoming less anti-repair, like Microsoft

You can actually boot Linux off of the Storage Expansion Cards (I do it regularly with Fedora 34 and Ubuntu 21.04). You can't easily do that with Windows 10, but you can put Windows 10 on the internal SSD and Linux on the Expansion Ca

On the DIY Edition, all of the off the shelf modules have a "None" option so that you can bring your own. In general we try to stay close to market pricing on memory and storage, but we can't always get there.
