It’s interesting to see the larger laptop have the smaller battery of the two.

And smaller resolution on a larger display with a dedicated RTX 4060 graphics card.

It like they're rebranding multiple different models of Clevo as a single product line or something

Betting the HDMI port is connected to the NVIDIA GPU too. That might be great for gaming, but NVIDIA drivers are still a mess on modern Linux, especially if they have to render your desktop.

This looks an awful lot (suspiciously so) like the FrameWork, but with none of the repairability?

It's the same price too, maybe even slightly more expensive - so I'm not sure who the market for this is. Any laptop (almost) can install Fedora.

Maybe it's for rich Linux users.

And the framework looks an awful lot like a MacBook. Coincidentally some HP laptops also look a lot like a MacBook.

But yes, why would anyone buy this if you could also buy a framework?

I mean, the framework laptop has a big marketing around something the macbook can't really do, so obviously that's the feature they are hooking you with. What's the special feature of the fedora slimbook instead? (asking, I'm not familiar with the laptop)

You can't actually compare prices there without comparing also specs.
