The MNT Reform Next in purple is my "someday" upgrade. It is fully open source, modular, and repairable. It is a machine that actually respects the user instead of fighting them. Plus, that purple is beautiful. I have respect for MNT Research for being one of the few ethically sound companies in Tech.

Are there any thoughts on the performance of the Rockchip RK3588 processor in the MNT Reform Next? I'd love to give it a try, but the last experiment with an ARM processor for a Linux everyday notebook (Thinkpad X13s) didn't go well. And I'm a bit hesitant to spend >1000 just to experiment.
