System76's Thelio Astra is a quiet monsterโit's by far the world's fastest Arm PC, and it starts at half the price of the Mac Pro.
Check out my video on the beastly machine here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AshDjtlV6go

jarkko1. Compatibility with some applications like Google Chrome and even Steam.
2. No EU distribution hub realized so far.
3. It becomes still quite expensive overall, especially since the lack of distribution in the EU region.
These look like issues that take at least few years to resolve so perhaps next time :-)

To actually upscale this business, even only in US, the system76 would really need to get into selling theses for other companies doing embedded ARM and provide leasing deals and support service to accompany that. It's cool what they do but it should also add value and not just be cool... Otherwise eventually there will be existential crisis :-)

@geerlingguy Don't forget Intel in GPU testing. That would be useful info for Linux or Windows. B580 is out now, with their higher end cards maybe soon.

@geerlingguy nice video! I've recently started watching your channel, thanks for all the great work! And I'm so glad you're on a Madison too! ๐๐ Most creators never bother with the fediverse.
