Would agree with that. Great Linux machine with that extra kilometer of freedom. With an upgraded CPU still powerful enough for 2023 and probably a few years to come. Probably one of the most powerful systems you can get with (nearly) free firmware and while not the best bang for the buck, probably the best bang for the buck for freedom that's available. I think all other systems with libre firmware are either way more expensive or less powerful … Would add to your points: * Rather heavy for a laptop (at least for my taste). * Very upgradeable, much cool! * You probably want to upgrade the touchpad to get separate trackpoint buttons. * To flash the firmware yourself you need to get access to both BIOS chips. To get to the second BIOS chip you need to nearly completely disassemble the machine. While not necessarily difficult to do, their is a good chance you have PTSD from breaking plastic clips afterwards … |
