There's old school, then there the really old school: Ubuntu-powered steampunk laptop available to order.  Although for $5,000, I expect more--it should double as a time machine.

Nice! Though following some of the other links on that page led me to this:

Which then led me to this:

$700 for a 1 inch thin notebook with a core-i3 proc designed specifically for Ubuntu? Yes please!

True, System76 makes nice machines.  Although by the time I finish choosing all the upgrades, it usually costs over $1,000. I'm looking forward to the day that solid-state drives become more affordable.

 

One reason I like their competitor, ZaReason, is that they offer a wider choice of Linux distros.  But my impression is that System76 machines are better made.
