System76 Thelio Computer is Open Source, Linux-Powered, and Made in the USA (betanews.com)
System76 is ready to share specifics about its new computer. From a report: There are three models from which to choose, and all three can apparently be configured with with Intel or AMD processors. This is refreshing news, as historically, System76 machines were an Intel-only affair. AMD has been more friendly to the Linux community over recent years, so I am happy to see System76 giving that option too.
1. Thelio (Up to 32GB RAM, 24TB storage) treks through tasks with ease despite its compact footprint.
2. Thelio Major (Up to 128GB RAM, 46TB storage) boasts stellar performance, allowing maximum configurability with up to 4 GPUs to tackle the most astronomical projects.
3. Thelio Massive (Up to 768GB of ECC Memory, 86TB storage) is the epitome of performance among workstations, offering maximum throughput and accuracy for demanding computational workloads.
Pricing starts at $1099.99, but that will obviously increase based on the specs you choose. Keep in mind, however, the computer will not ship until December. Full specs in the story above. In a statement, the company said, "Thelio Systems are designed to be easily expandable, making personalizing the computer a tantalizingly easy process. Slip in drives, add memory, and upgrade graphics cards at will. Additionally, the open hardware design that Thelio is built upon allows the user to easily learn how their computer works and make modifications using this information. Customization is simple to ensure that the computer encompasses people's needs, as well as their personality."

I think maybe there were people chanting that before the Trump administration. It was apparently popular right after the Revolutionary War to take pride in new-found self-sufficiency. Wikipedia has a photo of a Model-T hubcap stamped "Made in USA". Pretty popular saying during WWI and WW2. All the Democrat union workers" promote Made in USA pretty consistently.
I think you give Mr. Orange too much credit.
I'm still amused that people think "Born in the USA" is a patriotic song, when it's really about the hypocrisy of patriotism, and how the blue collar class got screwed by having to fight Vietnam.
