I know about Tuxedo but they have not been up-to-date for a long time. I checked their website and I can finally see the improvement in their newer laptops. But for a long time there were no laptops with USB 4 (e.g. Thunderbolt), only ISO keyboard layouts (bleh) and many other obvious and annoying drawbacks.

Also, Tuxedo still feels like brand of white label products. I know System76 is sort of the same, but somehow their products feel like products. But maybe it's just the marketing.

I've seen ANSI layout being available on many Tuxedo models. I got my Aura 15 with it 4 years ago.

I know it was available on some models, but many? I doubt it. The last time I checked what was available from Tuxedo (maybe 1.5-2 years ago), the 2-3 models I liked didn't have an ANSI keyboard layout option.

Yeah, I can understand what you mean, when I bought mine they didn't really have screens larger than 1080p. Luckily that didn't matter for me at the time.

I wanted to support them again, but I chose the new framework in the end. We'll see if it's going to be better.
