Forget Surface Go — System76 offers huge back-to-school savings on Linux laptops

Microsoft recently launched the Surface Go, and while the underpowered tablet looks like a decent enough option for students on a budget, let’s be honest — it isn’t a true laptop. Its floppy keyboard (which is sold separately) means it is not sturdy on a lap. Not to mention, it is more of a secondary computer — not a main PC. If you would rather equip the student in your life with a true computer, why not turn to Linux? After all, open source is the future of computing. System76 has a new back-to-school sale that makes buying a computer running Ubuntu or Pop!_OS much more affordable.
