Yes!! Please don't follow Dell's steps with their XPS. Lack of upgradability, and being unable to fix the WiFi card that came faulty, were the reasons I returned my Dell and gave System 76 a chance, a choice I never regretted!

I'm sure Linux users care more about upgradability and performance than "sleek and thin". The Galago Pro balances the two just perfectly.

I agree being able to upgrade or replace a single component is nice. I would also like the ability to purchase the laptops themselves without Drives and RAM. If I upgraded my Previous model to 32 Gigs of RAM and a fresh M.2 Samsung Drive, its a hassle to order a new laptop and try to sell the old parts.
