Okay, I bought the laptops from Purism. I sure hope this works out!

Post what you think once you've used it a bit
@cwebber if you can possibly spare the time, please post a review when you get downstream; I'm very interested in these and would appreciate your first-hand report.
@cwebber Fuuuuck yeeeeah!
@cwebber nice, got mine about a month ago. imho overpriced mediocre hardware, but excited about the future, the company is growing which means we might reach a point of Apple class libre computers
@decoy yeah I'm well aware that it's expensive given the build quality... but each iteration seems like it's better, and they do support coreboot and user-controlled TPM and blobless computers... all heading in the right direction.
@cwebber I’m also super curious about their products - would love to know what you think. Also reeeeally want to know about their phone, maybe even more than their computers...
@mikegerwitz trackpoint inflames my rsi so I'm not too worried about that
but yeah re: USB-C... I guess we'll see when I get it... and the USB-C dock, for that matter.
Looks like some success though: https://www.reddit.com/r/thinkpad/comments/70l6be/usbc_dock_hub_for_x1_5th_gen_that_works_with_linux/ https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Linux-Discussion/USB-C-dock-amp-Linux/td-p/3678331 https://www.reddit.com/r/thinkpad/comments/70l6be/usbc_dock_hub_for_x1_5th_gen_that_works_with_linux/
