System 76's All in One Sable Complete Desktop
update 6/2/2024: this was imported from a blog I kept on the University of Cincinnati home page service that they offered to students. Its’ been removed now, how rude, but lucky for me the web archive captured a single snapshot.
I periodically browse the System76 website in the hopes that one day I will overcome my Apple fetish and commit to using Linux desktops full rather than my current VM’s. I was really excited to see that System76 has a new all-in-one computer called the Sable Complete, not only does it look great - it has a very lucrative price point - currently $749 for the holiday sale.
System 76 Sable Complete
I think design wise they borrowed a little from the iMac and a little from the other all-in-ones made by HP and Dell. It comes with all of the things you expect from a modern PC, a built in webcam, i3-i7 processor, customizable RAM and Hard Drive space (including SSD options), etc and it has a beautiful 1080p 21.5" screen.
Ubuntu is getting more and more resource heavy these days and I think this is one of the better ways to truly experience it since system76 is committed to the best compatibility and performance with Ubuntu. Although other manufacturers sell computers with Ubuntu, I think system76 has shown over the years that they are hear for the long haul. I am excited to see this computer on the market and wish I would have waited a few months before buying my new iMac because this definitely would have been a good option for a desktop.

“From digital mischief to outright destruction”
The 1980s and 1990s PC viruses were a special breed. The MS-DOS operating system wasn’t particularly secure – few home computer operating systems were back then – so viruses could spread quickly, and many did. Some of the viruses focused more on actually w...

As a child, I was never a fan of any actor or singer. David Bowie is the closest thing to a “music idol” I’ve ever had. I never had a poster of him on my wall, or a T-shirt with his face on it, but he was a constant presence in my playlists, to the point w...
