Hey all, sorry I haven’t been around on Purism anymore lately. More or less I decided to postpone my buying until 2019 because of Meltdown / Spectre (there’s even a variant 4 now, yeesh) and Ice Lake will seemingly have silicon-level fixes for everything. I figured the smart plan would be to just wait for chip manufacturers to figure that out, and give Purism more time to mature as well - the Librem 15v4 will probably really be quite something. In the meantime I’m just focusing on building performance-based machines rather than security ones, to fuel my hobbies.
I’m thinking I’ll get a Librem 15 and a Librem 5 sometime next year.
In the meantime though - one thing that came up in my mind, what kind of panel is the display anyway? For over $1500 I’d hope that it’s not just using a TN panel. It should definitely be an IPS display for that pricepoint.
Just thought I’d raise the question.
though we need to be constantly vigilant because suppliers sometimes try to pull a fast one on you.
