Bonobo Extreme Review | LAS | s24e09

Chris reviews his monster of a notebook, the Bonobo Extreme from System76. We look at the advantages and disadvantages of this style of notebook, and discuss the difference it can make when a hardware maker focuses on Linux.

Plus is the product search functionality Spyware? RMS thinks so, and we debate. And an easy way to share files under Linux, Steam updates, a BIG batch of your emails…

AND SO MUCH MORE!
