Super excited about getting my new computer soon. A new System76 Lemur. I went for their Pop! OS because why not, and they said it’s better than Ubuntu, and I can probably just overwrite the OS if I don’t like it.

It has 1.5TB storage across two SSD drives, 40GB RAM, etc:

United States Keyboard
WiFi 6 + Bluetooth
14.1" Matte 1080p FHD Display
Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics
Pop!_OS 20.04 LTS (64-bit) with full disk-encryption
4.7 GHz i7-1165G7 (12MB Cache – 4 Cores – 8 Threads) +$199
40 GB DDR4 at 3200MHz (8GB+32GB) +$235
500 GB PCIe Gen4 Seq Read: 6,900 MB/s, Seq Write: 5,000 MB/s +$129
1 TB PCIe Gen3 Seq Read: 3,500 MB/s, Seq Write: 3,300 MB/s +$255
External USB DVD-RW Drive +$55

Total is ~$2500 including tax and shipping to Japan. Less than my MacBook Pro in 2012.

Same price as our IBM PC in 1981!
