>This laptop will have a 15.6-inch 1920x1080 display, a 3.4 GHz 4-core Intel i7 CPU, Intel Iris Pro Graphics 5200, 4GBs of RAM, a 500GB hard-drive, 802.11n Wi-Fi, a 720p Webcam and... proprietary firmware. For its operating system, it will use Purism 64-bit GNU/Linux

>$1,495

>802.11n

this desu senpai

It'd be overpriced even for a fucking mac

>Still, the first run of the Librem 15 is scheduled to ship in April 2015. When available, these laptops will sell for $1,495.

>Purism Librem 15

Fucking dropped, nibba!

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

why tf is free as in FREEDOM being SOLD to me

$1500 dollarydoos will get me outdated wifi too, neato.heck off

>Not using a laptop endorsed by Richard "two seconds away from wearing tin foil hat and locking himself in a basement" Stallman

I'm sure were all missing out.

>locking himself in a basement
>he regularly travels the world, experiencing new cultures and talking to new people

enough of this meme, he's a fucking weirdo, but not all weirdos are the same

>gnu based laptop

>out of date wifi
>$1500 minimum
>released 2015

Why are we even discussing this?

>2015

The fuck are you doing here if you don't at least admire stallman?
Or are you here just for apple/consumer electronics?

Just get the snsv C201 Chromebook, and slap Libreboot on it.

If it can run OpenBSD well enough, I'll consider it.

Reminder that the same fags that hate on apple would pay to suck stallmans dick

If you are not paying for the OS because muh freedom what are you paying 1500$ for?

good job you fucking retards

>the laptop isn't free
fuck off

Because it ships with a proprietary bios and intel me by default

Has Stallman lost it?

The CPU in that thing is fucking disgusting.

Why? Because it's an ARM CPU? BIG FUCKING DEAL…

A shit ARM CPU.

Read the article. It's not stallman approved, it's stallman commented.

His comment is basically "Less proprietary software the better"

Why though? So long it is working who gives a fuck? It's obviously not suitable for gaymen, but when all you need from it is some basic computing and occasionally compiling some code, who gives a fuck?

Imagine trying to compile Gentoo on this thing...

If I remember correctly Intel ME and Libreboot can't exist together. How will this thing support libreboot? If it does, and they will find a way to remove intel ME could be worth it

>numpad on a laptop

fucking dropped already. I don't even care what the other specs are.

it's not libre
I don't think stallman endorsed it

no thanks, im not mentally handicapped

Terry is the new representative of Sup Forums, fuck off.

>non-free laptop endorsed by Stallsham

Terry belongs to Sup Forums newfag, fuck off and stop stealing from other boards.

This. Stop with these gimmick buttons already.

>released 2015
this is the board has daily threads about laptops from 2011, stop whining

>using a capital letter and underscores

just the underscore is good enough user

numpads are quite useful if you do a lot of data entry

If you do a lot of it you might want to get a separate monitor and keyboard anyway. Then you can get a keyboard with as many buttons as needed for that work.

THIS IS THE POWER OF linshit HAHAHAHA

>"free"

Might just use any other laptop at that point.

With those specs it could be a 700 dollar pc and I wouldn't be surprised.

I've been trying to find a Lemote Yeeloong for quite a while now.

>trackpad not centered
dropped

Same with trannyboot. Why do they have to be massivvely overpriced?
C'mon nobody wants to buy a T420 for like 800 bucks.

cia nigger shill

Oh never mind they have lowered the price to 249€ for the T400.
That's kind of reasonable with that warranty.

>not supporting purism
The guys are literally reverse engineering botnet free laptops

> why tf is free as in FREEDOM being SOLD to me
Free as in "freedom" vs. free as in "beer".

GOD SAID 640X480 16 COLOUR, NO NETWORKING!
