I have used PopOS and I like it for the features and stability (coming from macOS).

I agree about their focus - however the laptops just look and seem out of date for the price. I see myself going down the Dell Precision or even XPS line and putting Pop or elementaryOS on it.

For those comfortable with Linux I can see going that route. To me, I have no Linux background or interest really, so am excited to have found a Linux-first vendor like System76.

From veidr below: "So why do I like System76 and why did I choose their OS? One, I want to have some company trying to make an OS for people like me, and I want them doing that to make money in a non-gross way. So not like giving me a free Google OS to serve ads to my kids."

"I feel like System76 is targeting me as a customer. I am willing to pay a premium for a good machine that somebody designed. Not all of their hardware appeals to me, but they are trying to do that."

I completely agree. I have thought about purchasing one of their desktops just because I like the company and want to support them for reasons above.
