is the touchpad better? Have to agree with GP that clevo touchpads are bad, i have the orpy5 and the touchpad is the worst. Its bad on windows too so it isn't just some linux driver thing. Super easy to do stray palm presses and send the cursor to random places.

They may not have permission to share it. They may just be acting coy because the scope of the conversation. They may just not know it. They may feel it just doesn't matter. Who knows?

A S76 QA engineer shared more details on Reddit.

> The chassis and motherboard for this product are manufactured by a company called Emdoor. The final assembly will be done in-house at System76's Denver factory (the same place Thelios and Launches are manufactured.)
