Man that eee pc, disks, and ipod are an instant nostalgia trigger for me. I miss my net books. Not enough to go buy one though.

I feel like linux users benefit the most from arm since we can build our software natively for arm with access to the source code.
There shtick is privacy. They are selling privacy oriented machines which is a value add for people who need device privacy but don’t have the bandwidth to to setup and audit everything themselves. The service they are selling is more privacy then value budget hardware.
I haven’t looked at there stuff in while. They have really compelling devices. There a bit too pricey for me at the moment.
I’m very interested in these.
That look really good!
That makes sense. I really appreciate that you’re wearing gloves now.
That looks delicious! This is such a weird photo though lol. Do you normally eat with gloves above a trashcan?
That’s only for minorities and poor people.

I bet those taste extra good outside in the cold.
Oh, damn I have one of these in one of my systems. I’m going to have to find it now and replace it. :(
Based on my experience with eating cow tongue tacos that sounds really delicious.
That’s awesome! The system76 stuff looks so cool.
When I installed ubuntu on my surface go 2 it was as easy as there is good known documentation on it. Only thing is you want to pick up a usb c dock to plug a keyboard along with the installation media. https://github.com/linux-surface/linux-surface/wiki/Surface-Go-2
I’ve been enjoying ubuntu on my surface go 2. You can pick one up used for less than $200. Go for an 8gb model. Everything worked for me except the webcam.
At first I was like WTF but actually it makes sense. A screen showing an error code is much better than a hard reset, blinking cursor, kernel panic, or just black screen you usually get when something bad happens on linux.
It’s hard to recommend because sometimes with cheaper laptops they have weird wifi chip sets, audio chip sets, and stuff for controlling the lcd back light, f-keys, etc… Also sometimes they have weird way to boot into the boot menu that may not be well documented. I don’t really know what brand or models should be avoided though.
Yeah, I should be more clear. I’m talking about laptops that the manufacture openly supports or ships a linux distro with it. I just assume OP already knows he can do a bit of research and get a decent $300 laptop from like lenovo/acer/hp/dell/etc… and install linux on it.
I think the “Showcasing Framework Laptops” is what rubs me the wrong way. I like the idea of trying to get feedback and learn the need of real linux users but anything that qualifies as marketing should be paid.
