System76 sells desktops and laptops built specifically for Linux, and the Gazelle (gaze18) is one of the company’s workstation laptops. It was recently updated with new hardware, and it might just be worth the asking price if you’re in the market for a Linux PC.
The System76 Gazelle has been around for years, but the latest iteration ships with an Intel Core i9 processor, NVIDIA RTX 3050 graphics, up to 8TB of storage, up to 64GB of RAM, and a 15 or 17-inch 1080p display. That hardware is paired with an array of ports and connectivity options, plus the luxury of a fully supported Linux experience.
If you’re looking for a powerful laptop built for Linux, the Gazelle might be for you, but there are some drawbacks to consider.
What is Convergence
In 2013 Kyle Rankin (at the time Linux Journal columnist and CSO of Purism) wrote a Linux Journal article about Linux convergence [1] (which means using a phone and a dock to replace a desktop) featuring the Nokia N900 smart phone and a chroot environment on the Motorola Droid 4 Android phone. Both of them have very limited hardware even by the standards of the day and neither of which were systems I’d consider using all the time. None of the Android phones I used at that time were at all comparable to any sort of desktop system I’d want to use.
Hardware for Convergence – Comparing a Phone to a Laptop
The first hardware issue for convergence is docks and other accessories to attach a small computer to hardware designed for larger computers. Laptop docks have been around for decades and for decades I haven’t been using them because they have all been expensive and specific to a particular model of laptop. Having an expensive dock at home and an expensive dock at the office and then replacing them both when the laptop is replaced may work well for some people but wasn’t something I wanted to do. The USB-C interface supports data, power, and DisplayPort video over the same cable and now USB-C docks start at about $20 on eBay and dock functionality is built in to many new monitors. I can take a USB-C device to the office of any large company and know there’s a good chance that there will be a USB-C dock ready for me to use. The fact that USB-C is a standard feature for phones gives obvious potential for convergence.

I recently discovered Syncthing, an open-source tool for syncing files across multiple machines.
Setting up Syncthing on my personal devices was easy, but I went on an interesting journey deploying it to a cloud server.
Why run Syncthing in the cloud? Syncthing synchronizes files peer to peer. That means that at least two of my devices have to be online and running Syncthing simultaneously to stay in sync. If I change a file on my desktop, shut it down, and then take my laptop with me on a work trip, my laptop won’t pick up the changes I made on my desktop.
