HP Chooses Ubuntu-Based Pop!_OS Linux For Its Upcoming Dev One Laptop

Saturday May 21, 2022. 12:00 PM , from Slashdot
System76's CEO Carl Richell announced that HP has chosen the Ubuntu-based Pop!_OS operating system to run on its 14-inch developer-focused notebook called 'Dev One.' Brian Fagioli from BetaNews speculates that a HP acquisition of System76 'could be a possibility in the future -- if this new relationship pans out at least.' He continues: HP could be testing the waters with the upcoming Dev One. Keep in mind, System76 does not even build its own laptops, so we could see the company leave the notebook business and focus on desktops only -- let HP handle the Pop!_OS laptops. 'We've got you covered. Experience exceptional multi-core performance from the AMD Ryzen 7 PRO processor and multitask with ease. Compile code, run a build, and keep all your apps running with more speed from the 16GB memory. Plus, load and save files in a flash, thanks to 1TB fast PCIe NVMe M.2 storage. We've even added a Linux Super key so shortcuts are a click away. Simply put, HP Dev One is built to help you code better,' explains HP.

The company adds, 'Pop!_OS is at your service. Create your ideal work experience with multiple tools to help you perform with peak efficiency. Use Stacking to organize and access multiple applications, browsers, and terminal windows. Move, resize, and arrange windows with ease or, let Pop!_OS keep you organized and efficient with Auto-tiling. And use Workspaces to reduce clutter by organizing windows across multiple desktops.' Apparently, there will only be one configuration priced at $1,099. So far, no details about a release date have been announced other than 'coming soon.'
