I got close to buying a System76 last year, but ended up with a Lenovo
X1 Carbon 7th Gen. Works great with vanilla Ubuntu, dock and external
monitors etc. Thanks to PLUG for the input - archives for the discussion
start at
http://lists.plug.org.au/pipermail/plug/2020-October/thread.html but go
on for a few months(!) after that.

HTH,
Greg.
