          Another scam company like framework trying to charge exorbitant fees for computers without dedicated GPUs.

          Don't be fooled by the viral marketing/useful idiots, guys. Just go with the product that's the best deal for you.

              Most of this is because of some drama where they tried to port coreboot by lowballing some coreboot agencies who eventually told him to fuck off

                This is not the first time Malibal made an appearance.

                Last time I heard about them, they shafted the CoreBoot people then also banned the several countries from doing business with them.

                Malibal is legitimately insane.

                  Now, I would love to know more about who's behind MALIBAL, and what's happening within the - probably, single-person - company. However, I have not found any information about that; if you have any, please feel free to contact me.

                  sorry did the author not come across the companies own about page?

                  That "about" page is fucking wild. They spend like half the page sucking themselves off over how great of a job they did designing their own logo, and then the other half telling the user the proper way to reference the company and its products. I really want to spend some time on the live chat breaking all the rules, like not capitalizing every letter of their name...

                      Well, like all the attitude of Terry without the genius to back it up. The "about" pages and stuff just read like your typical "One superior genius started this company" grift myth.

                            Framework 16 does have a dedicated GPU option, and it's upgradable.

                              As i understand it, the OEM business has razor thin margins as it is. This seems like an aggressively unsustainable business practice, to the point that it's making me wonder what their game is...

                              I was under the impression, from reading one of the developers write of his interaction with the owner, that they're just selling dropped shipped white label laptops.

                              They're simply add branding and a disk image which the white label manufacturer applies before shipping.

                              So it doesn't even seem to be an OEM... Just some guy trying to make an easy buck with some slick marketing and white label laptops... he just couldn't get the image setup and failed spectacularly in collaboration with the people who could help him.

                                But I notice that they don't say they'll ban everyone from Feddit...?

                                So, maybe there's some hope for them yet...

                                  Just as a info, they are a Clevo reseller: https://linustechtips.com/topic/802163-clevo-custom-laptops-and-world-clevo-resellers/#comment-10086025

                                  That probably also applies to a lot of other small size linux laptop companies that are not doing a lot of custom stuff in their laptops.

                                      First I thougt its just a prank by a bored social media intern, but it looks like the whole company is built on this insane absurd communication. It was a hilarious read 😄

                                        I like how they take a moral stance against Apple and Google, but then proudly display Boeing and the US Air Force as customers.
