> Welp, lesson learned Yes go to HP/Dell/Lenovo/Apple where no one works on open...

I wonder what's worse: not supplying open firmware at all, or doing it at the S76 level. You get laptops that don't suspend as shipped, you still cannot remove of disable Intel ME, but yay another desktop shell!

Are these S76 level bugs, or issues from their suppliers?

The leap in scale from using Clevo designs with S76 software to designing your own hardware is massive.

They worked with HP. But if you are expecting Apple MacBook Pro level devices in the Linux flavour, I think it's going to take a few more years of buying what they are selling to achieve that scale.

I am still kicking myself for not scooping up the Dev Ones when they were $200 off. They had a keyboard nipple dammit!

The DevOne is a really interesting and unexpected product. I hope they iterate and follow up with a new one eventually.

They have not suspended the laptops during shipment?

Yeah right? Another good point for open firmware.
