Pretty expensive. I wonder if they are as private and secure as they say.

They also claim to be made in the US. I've been using Samsung phones for awhile but they are getting way up there in price too and the last one I bought did not even last 2 years before it started fucking up.

I'm about a year into this one and thinking of switching brands if it doesn't last longer this time.

I have their laptop. I didn't even really boot it into whatever OS it came with. I immediately put Arch on it because it was what I'm familiar with. I really like it. It's solid. I have a smart phone I use for work and at home, but a dumb (Light Phone) that I use when I leave my complex. I couldn't justify the cost of the Purism one just because I don't a smart phone outside of the apartment, anyway.

Never even tried the os ? lol,, that cracks me up. That is one of their claims to fame and you never even gave it a shot.

Nope! I'm terrible like that; always have been. Hand me a device and I pop whatever linux version I'm familiar with on it. I still freaking use the WindowMaker window manager on all my linux boxes in my home. I did Slackware for ages, then it became Arch when I was running into having to compile just about everything on Slack and got tired of it. It's just like I struggle with any mp3 player that doesn't run Rockbox. I'm stuck in my ways.

I can appreciate that. I'm pretty stuck in my ways as well.
