Pop!_OS & COSMIC funded by System76 hardware sales
COSMIC and Pop!_OS are fully funded through @system76 hardware sales. Our hardware includes a wide range of products built for Linux, from desktop computers with open hardware chassis, to laptops running open source firmware, to open hardware keyboards: https://system76.com/ If you can't find someth...
If you can't find something that meets your needs, let us know what we need to add! We can often offer options beyond those in the system configurator.

Being honest, its really hard for me to buy a pop_os laptop when the framework laptop exists. Being able to have that level of customizability and self repair options are just too good to pass up.
Suggestion: perhaps pop_os could collab with framework to make a pop_os laptop that is far more customizable and repairable than what is currently available
System76 supports right to repair, and all laptops sold have readily available replacement parts and documentation. Those interested in firmware development may even request board documentation.
Similar to HP, I suppose Framework could request to collab with System76 for optimized support and integration with Pop!_OS; but we're looking to design and manufacture our own laptops in Denver, codenamed Virgo. We've had a bucket list of ideas for what we want in a dream laptop for years, and Framework falls short of that dream.
Thank you for the informative reply! I am curious; why does the framework laptop fall short of a dream laptop? Can you elaborate?
We're currently prototyping a low profile mechanical keyboard with a trackpoint for Virgo. There will be more to share in the future. All aspects of the system will be open sourced. Open firmware, open hardware with CAD files, Linux-focused, etc.
