   Yeah yeah I know, corpos bad, hack the planet, guillotine landlords or whatever BUT forget about that for a min and LISTEN
   
   just got a payraise, more stonks, and a fat bonus coming next paycheck. Think I'm gonna buy a new computer. Thinking of doing a system76 prebuilt. I got nothing to prove assembling yet another custom build. Also s76's cases have no glass panels so no unicorn vomit. Anybody bought their PCs before?

     @BitBun I've used popOS before so I feel like I know what I'm getting into there, I'm more concerned with the build quality
     
     It really is an exercise in laziness. My current PC is the fuckin Rig Of Theseus and I just wanna start over

     @dielan I have a Thelios, I didn't like PopOS so I installed kubuntu, I like it pretty well. I bought laptops from them before and they kinda suck, never again on their laptops.

     I will say, the impression I get is you're paying a bit of a premium for something you could probably build cheaper, or find from a competitor for similar quality/specs cheaper, but if you're okay with that or lazy (as I am), I've been pretty happy with the desktop.

     I feel mid about s76, personally.
