Looks like maybe the packaging was undone during customs, since the laptop was replaced upside-down.🤷‍♀️

Nice Thank You card inside.

I haven't had an aluminum cased laptop before. It feels really nice.

I hadn't noticed the headphone jack when ordering. I'm glad it's there; Bluetooth stuff gets to be too much sometimes, it's nice to be able to just plug in some headphones.

There are some "debugging" connectors on the right-hand side. I'm curious what I'll be able to use those for.

I'd say there's maybe some slight misalignment between the connectors and the case, maybe?

Unfold the thing, hold the power button for a second, and it boots up to an Ubuntu 23.10 setup wizard (about 50 seconds).

I probably won't share details of this process unless I see anything unique.

While updates download, a few details about this machine. The CPU is a SpacemiT K1, which appears to also be equivalent to X60x8. This is an RV64 application processor. It also supports the Vector extension with VLEN=256 (2x128b) and an unratified IME extension for low-precision and integer matrix computations. It has a PowerVR graphics processor that supports accelerated video decode and encode.

Lol, updates finished and I get a dialogue saying, "Software updates are no longer provided for Ubuntu 23.10." I'll have to see if anyone's tested an update to 24.04.1 LTS on this machine.

I fully plan to install #guix on here ASAP.

Oh no, for some reason the filesystem has only 6.5GB available, even though it's a 1TB NVME. That's silly, and definitely not user-friendly. Oops, checking out git clone got me an ENOSPC. And, oh Lord, the "Support" link redirects to GitHub. Hopefully can figure this out quick.
