after my "Tuxedo computer" laptop is reaching its EOL (due to issues with the power-supply) I wanted to treat myself with something similar. Turns out that CLEVO supplies most of these vendors (System76, Tuxedo, etc). In fact system76 [1] "darter pro 9" seems equivalent to Clevo "NS50AU" model [2] - so getting coreboot to work is finally a reality. the only issue I have with system76 is that I'm unable to get it with an ISO keyboard. So ordering directly from CLEVO I hoped solves it. Only downside that I'm now finding out the hard way, is that CLEVO is unresponsive wrt support questions. The machine has been paid in advance a while ago and was supposed to ship within 10 days. looking at their google reviews I'm not the only one who has this issue. Nobody picks up the phone, emails aren't answered etc. According to the reviews some simply don't get their goods at all and have to take legal action.
