Steam seems to be having some troubles lately. Anyway really nice presentation and review
can i change the function of the power button?
Oryx pro? Will it let me take?
personally i like to pronounce gnome as g-nom-eee
Do you use Pop OS as your daily driver?
Never had a Coreboot device before? Really? All Chromebooks run Coreboot.
I love this man!
Nnnnnice. I like it. But I saw in the intro that they have a mini computer called a Meerkat. That's the computer I want. But I NEED a laptop. And did I understand this is running on Linux? I have been wanting to break away from MS based computers for a while.
Anthony your voice is buttery smooth
Is Anthony gay? I'd marry him like right now
I dont think that 1700$ is too much for a custom designed i7 HQ laptop with an almost top shelf GPU. TPM would be useful so i could also install corporate Wins, or i cannot?
That's real premium. Not apple's. That's a laptop you can truly and honestly consider yours
Those USB ports are 3.2!
- no "promo" code from short circuit for a cheaper buy now? - no.
Wow that laptop looks EXACTLY like the HP laptop i bought for my gf. The keyboard, the io, the design. Does HP use clevo as an example or something?
I only watch for Anthony
if some dude stole this laptop hed be too scared to mess with linux cuz hes if hes dumb enough to steal from me then hes not smart enough to use it
*mhhh* System 76 vs Thinkpad X1 -Series/Thinkpad generaly *mhhhh* ....
Great Ad!
Awesome! More Linux content I can watch from my Pop!_OS computer.
I used to like System 76 but they are so overpriced it's painful.
You'd think they would go with AMD cards over Nvidia cards with how open its trying to be, but then again too many nvidia fanboys would boycott the thing if too many options were given.
The ceo gives me a Hank Scorpio vibe... and i wanna support that... ps changing to custom keymaps is awesome and i suppose a good example of what you can do with this firmware setup
Price of well deserved freedom.
The "complete opposite" costs the same?
This with an M1-level ARM cpu would be perfect.
You can change qwerty into abcdef nice
I'm running Ubuntu right now.
Isn't pop os cancelled?
Are you that guy from the tiger king that rides the jet ski?
Pop!_OS was my first Linux OS, definitely recommended for new users. Now I run Arch though, the AUR is just awesome
What I want to know is does it work with Zoom, WebEx, etc. Can you interact in a normal business environment?
watching this on Pop!_OS
"what is the price of freedom, really." ~ Sir Anthony, Esq., philosopher
Watching Anthony unpacking is...life
The fan of my System76 laptop makes a very loud noise. It's a brand new laptop. Anybody else have similar issue?
Dude, I can't thank you enough, I put pop os in two of my older laptops and rejigged them, one as a multimedia center and the other I am playing around with exploring office applications... Love you for this... Keep up the great work, keep it coming...
of all people on the L Company, Anthony Probably comes across as the most relaxing voice to hear. well intonated, not jumpy, very therapeutic ... i feel like i am at peace despite using a windows.
[reads title] Sounds pretty good!
what's the name of this man?
you are hilarious
System 7's OS is the complete opposite of every system we know. So for a pretty laptop, we accept a vertical learning curve. No, thanks. "They expect you to open it up." So does every virus.
Coreboot is this some amazing new thing I need to pay thousands for? Or is it what we run on old chromebooks so I can install archlinux. Changing key bindings? Sounds again like running arch on an old chromebook.
"I'm allergic to short circuit" lmao love this guy
I mean this respectfully and with admiration: Anthony is the biggest nerd I know.
Nope Pop OS not working for me. 70% of steam games won't install on Linux and PoP Os crashed alot during setup compared to ubuntu
Anthony is the James May of ShortCircuit
Anthony is the hero we need. Top presentational skills. Top guy. 👍
Pop! OS, the fancy version of Ubuntu!
Aye Tony !!! We can see the excitement in his eyes
heres why its nowhere near a mac........its linux.
The complete opposite?! That means its not an expensive piece of shit with components that are built to last more than a year?! That's good marketing. Fuck crapple
ill still with my Mac
would this be a good laptop to buy for pentesting? i feel like having flashable open source firmware would be a bit of a potential security flaw, maybe you guys could do a video on a range of good pentesting laptops or running parrot or kali? maybe having budget option, small form factor and no compromises? i know Anthony probably has the best knowledge of who makes the best systems for running linux operating systems, would be nice to have a video coming from a source i actually trust unlike the plenty of videos done by people who haven't proven any linux tech knowledge such as the people posting borderline powerpoint presentations with loud music and no commentary
Underpriced, bad-ish software, great support team, 0 future update support?
I went to school for photography and I've been a lifelong Mac user and working as a photographer so Macs are what everybody uses, however I've recently switched to Linux and bought a system76 laptop and I've never been happier. working with it has been amazing and my switch to free open source software, while it may not be quite as feature-rich as Photoshop and illustrator to name a couple of examples, using GIMP and Inkscape has been great and it's really nice to own my software again oh, it totally gets the job done, no problem. I also use Darktable, which blows me away how good it is. Using the system 76 laptop has been really such a joy, I will never buy or use a Mac again. I actually used my old MacBook Pro which was just collecting dust and not getting used it all and have no more support from Apple to install Ubuntu on it, and it performs way better than it did with Mac OS, where I would get the stupid spinning beach ball thing all the time. It's flying with Ubuntu and running the latest 2020 software. I've since made a donation to The Ubuntu project. Well worth it.
So, it's premium? Cool.
That fact that I just now realized Anthony has his own youtube makes my decade!
The only turnoff for this laptop is the keyboard layout. I don't like numpad. I think it's useless, at least for me and forces me to have that awkward position where my hands are aligned to the left of the screen instead of the center. And this is the only reason I have opted out from buying from System76.
My kind of computers: System 76, Asus, IBM
And all of these is interesting because?....
never heard from them before
Watching Anthony makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
it looks very much alike ubuntu
What is the price of freedom really? -America
I get upset whenever I hear somebody say ‘Flickr’.
If only I could map my mouse freely on popos! I miss my razer mouse 😭
but can I flash arch on to it
It's using an Nvidia driver which is proprietary. Everything else may be free and open but that certainly is not.
Can change keyboard layout. But can’t change keeb layout 😞
with all respect, that thermal pad is ment to be used on the m.2 SSD. I'm repairing dozens of these devices evry day :)
This machine will works great on windows 😁
>what is the price of freedom really
whats name of Anthony please i dont find it in wiki tnx
Can I install windows 10 on it?
what are thunderbolts?
They are basically a little Apple... everything is unneccessarrily expensive.
They make the inside of the box like that so you can flip it inside out and reuse it.
Anthony is such a likeable and knowledgeable lad! I worry about his health a little though it would be great to see him start going to gym with Linus (and maybe even upload vids of this if he would be comfortable about that). Nothing against him here, but I would love him to improve his physique, so it matches his personality!
Anthony, you don’t look well in this video. I am a fan. Please consider taking a health break. But by all means...you do you.
Great concept, but i don't know how to make full use of RTX 2060S (or better) in open-source / linux environment. Powerful GPU in laptop is expensive, I would wait for an AMD-based system.
This man has good knowledge 👍🏻
way too expensive for a "linux machine" it's a niche even for a niche community

They actually disable the amd/Intel cpu backdoors, which is rare level of privacy.
Thanks Anthony for this great review. I didn't know about System76 but it's pretty amazing! I'm a Linux user and developer since '93 and I never had a laptop that was 100% Linux compatible and supported, even though some of them came really close to 100% after a couple of years... Those System76 laptops are kinda pricey compared to "normal" brands but I can understand why. I think my next laptop will be a Oryx Pro...
Been looking for a distro to throw on my old xps 15, I'll have to give this a try. The laptops and systems system76 make look pretty nice as well. Might have to look at them when I finally replace this XPS. Thanks for the review!
Shows an notebook dozens of times better than my desktop... "You got some upgrading to do" Lol
That's a mad rig!!
I want a relationship as strong as this dudes last few hairs 💀
Anthony: This laptop uses completely open source software. Also Anthony: So, um, what version of the nvidia driver are we using here? 440.100
Nobody: Every comment is about how awesome Anthony is. Me: he's been awesome since he started wearing WWII plane shirts.
very cool laptop but i dont think i am the demographic lol
i have no desire or ability to use linix or github to modify/create firmware. everything in here is way above my paygrade. but i watched it start to finish b/c anthonys knowledge, enthusiasm, and ability to eli5. way to go anthony, kudos
Is that really what you want? Huh? Ask yourself that...think about it now...😂
You are the best! Thanks for the review!
I don't get it, what's the point of that notebook? What am I supposed to do with it?
I love you Anthony
16:9 Screens are unusable for me. Once one tried a 16:10 or 3:2, there is no way back regarding productivity
why not amd
the fan just kicked in cause it's running Linux. The OS where EVERYTHING has to be configured. God forbid anyone say anything bad about it or you're a monster. Oh linux never has issues, oh linux never crashes. Honestly, you can have a good experience or bad, but honestly, most distros are only for avid users that know how to use a Linux command line.
this looks a lot like the MSI GFthin laptop
