I bought a System76 Thelio. I just ordered the base model and upgraded the ram and processor. I used to dual boot Ubuntu and Windows 10 on the same drive on a different machine. But not with this. I have the stock Pop_OS on its own drive and Windows on another. Then I use 2 more drives for media storage. It works great. It's fast and I get best of both worlds. I could have built my own but I really like the company's effort to create open hardware. I felt it was something worth supporting. PCPartPicker is a great tool. I encourage you to try a desktop again. Another great reason to go this route is being able to upgrade or simply having the abilty to easily replace parts yourself. Desktops just last longer. Cheers!
